Just read that, very interesting. I will be interested to see what server hardware they use and whether it is multi platform. |

It's a pity that they don't reveal any of that information. I'd be curious to see how they manage to run (probably well into the 100's of thousands) servers, and have it all working in sync - not to mention individual node failures, power infrastructure etc. |

A lot of really good algorithms that they work on everyday (See the Black Box article in the NY Times) and I bet a lot of redundancies in terms of servers and power supplies. |
