#3When I see these kinda posts, I always wonder,
- just how many 8GB ram servers do you actually think youtube runs?
- how many petabytes of capacity do they actually have?
- if your revenue from advertising is more or less going to be between a ballpark range, how do you manage ever increasing storage costs?

Well, my understanding is that YouTube doesn't run on VMs, it runs on Borg (kubernetes precursor) containers... tens of millions of them.
