Google (in ACM) on data-center networking
http://j.mp/R4S2yX (ACM)
"The magic of the cloud is that it is always on and always available
from anywhere. Users have come to expect that services are there when
they need them. A data center (or warehouse-scale computer) is the
nexus from which all the services flow. It is often housed in a
nondescript warehouse-sized building bearing no indication of what
lies inside. Amidst the whirring fans and refrigerator-sized computer
racks is a tapestry of electrical cables and fiber optics weaving
everything together-the data-center network. This article provides a
"guided tour" through the principles and central ideas surrounding the
network at the heart of a data center - the modern-day loom that
weaves the digital fabric of the Internet."
