Summary[edit]

Description
English:

Google’s First Production Server

...with the hair pulled back, revealing a rack of cheap networked PCs, circa 1999.

Each level has a couple of PC boards slammed in there, partially overlapping. This approach reflects a presumption of rapid obsolescence of cheap hardware, which would not need to be repaired. Several of the PCs never worked, and the system design optimized around multiple computer failures.

According to Larry and Sergey, the beta system used Duplo blocks for the chassis because generic brand plastic blocks were not rigid enough.

We held an event at the Computer History Museum yesterday, and I noticed this new item in the collection. It pre-dates the Google Master Plan.

Google का पहला उत्पादन सर्वर

... बालों को पीछे खींचकर, सस्ते नेटवर्क वाले पीसी के एक रैक का खुलासा करते हुए, लगभग 1999।

प्रत्येक स्तर में कुछ पीसी बोर्ड हैं, जो आंशिक रूप से अतिव्यापी हैं। यह दृष्टिकोण सस्ते हार्डवेयर के तेजी से अप्रचलन की धारणा को दर्शाता है, जिसकी मरम्मत की आवश्यकता नहीं होगी। कई पीसी ने कभी काम नहीं किया, और सिस्टम डिज़ाइन को कई कंप्यूटर विफलताओं के आसपास अनुकूलित किया गया।

लैरी और सर्गेई के अनुसार, बीटा सिस्टम ने चेसिस के लिए डुप्लो ब्लॉक का इस्तेमाल किया क्योंकि जेनेरिक ब्रांड के प्लास्टिक ब्लॉक पर्याप्त कठोर नहीं थे।

हमने कल कंप्यूटर इतिहास संग्रहालय में एक कार्यक्रम आयोजित किया, और मैंने संग्रह में इस नई वस्तु को देखा। यह Google मास्टर प्लान से पहले का है।
