2013 Year in review: topping 100,000 requests-per-second
Friday, December 27, 2013
2013 was a busy year for Google Cloud Platform. Watch this space: each day, a different Googler who works on Cloud Platform will be sharing his or her highlight from the past year.
Seeing one of our customers top 100,000 requests per second was the highlight of the year. That is enough capacity to answer a request by
every single person on the plane
t in a single day. It feels that people can take our platform and change the world with new business models, cool applications, and knowledge sharing at a truly global level. The real exciting part for me is that Google App Engine allowed the customer to do it easily, as they kept all their focus on a great mobile app and customer experience instead of worrying about the underlying infrastructure.
