DECEMBER 20, 2017

Developments like cloud computing, the internet of things, artificial intelligence, and machine learning are proving that IT has (again) become a strategic business driver. The end effect is that the complexity of the system increases, which is not efficient. Nearly 15 years later, the situation has changed.

Google's approach to pricing is, "do it as efficiently and quickly as possible, and we'll make sure that's the cheapest option". I got to work on something so big a cloud provider learned about their scale bottlenecks. jedberg : Despite being a strong advocate for AWS, this is where I will say Google completely outshines Amazon.

It’s also one of the reasons we can keep using the Internet with many concurrent users, because it smartly limits each user’s bandwidth usage to their fair share.
