But Barroso’s ideas made the insides exceptional.of centralizing key software in a data center on a few expensive and powerful machines.
“It’s easy to forget just how crazy the amount of computational data is required to be able to give you a new result every 20 milliseconds or something,” he told WIRED’s Steven Levy in 2012. “We’re essentially searching our web corpus, our images corpus, you name it, every time you do a keystroke.”
