Behind the scenes of Google

Via ./ I found a lecture by Jeff Dean--distinguished Google’s engineer--at University of Washington. If you are interested in knowing how things are cooked in Google behind the scenes you may want to watch this lecture. This is the abstract of the lecture:


Search is one of the most important applications used on the internet and poses some of the most interesting challenges in computer science. Providing high-quality search requires understanding across a wide range of computer science disciplines. In this program, Jeff Dean of Google describes some of these challenges, discusses applications Google has developed, and highlights systems they've built, including GFS, a large-scale distributed file system, and MapReduce, a library for automatic parallelization and distribution of large-scale computation. He also shares some interesting observations derived from Google's web data.
