Google's infamous internal 2010 “I just want to serve 5TB” video now public
The same conversation at Netflix 10 years ago:<p>I want to serve 5TB of data.<p>Ok, spin up an instance in AWS and put it there.<p>I want it production ready.<p>Ok, replicate it to a second instance.  If it breaks we&#x27;ll page you to fix it.<p>The funny thing is, for important stuff, we ended up doing similar things to what you see in this video, but for unimportant things, we didn&#x27;t.  I think it was a better system, and it was amusing when we hired people from Google who were confused by the lack of process and approvals.
