Internet Scale Storage
Summary: Analyzes internet-scale data centers to identify cost drivers (power, servers, storage, cooling) and persistent state management in multi-tenant, multi-datacenter environments. Frames cloud-DB/storage research around infrastructure-cost sensitivity, arguing profitability hinges on scalable, cross-datacenter design for multi-tenant workloads.
