Google Earth Causing Strain

David Girouard, general manager at Google's enterprise division gave a keynote at Interop show in New York this week.

He said that the firm blows through "'an incredible amount' of computing power, disk space, and bandwidth. The exec noted that the firm has 'concerns about the future in all these respects'" according to an article in Byte and Switch.

He went on: "'If you look at what we’re doing with Google Earth,' he explained, 'it doesn’t take a stretch of the imagination to say that there’s a tremendous amount of processing power, bandwidth, and storage going on at Google in everything that we do.'"
