Abstract: Building Software Systems at Google and Lessons Learned
Jeffrey Dean, Google, Inc.
Underlying the many products and services offered by Google are various
interesting hardware and software systems. In this talk I'll outline
Google's hardware infrastructure, discuss the evolution of Google's
search and infrastructure software, identify some lessons learned in
building these various systems, and highlight some interesting areas for
future work.
Jeff joined Google in 1999 and is currently a Google Fellow in Google's
Systems Infrastructure Group. He has co-designed/implemented five
generations of Google's crawling, indexing, and query serving systems,
as well as major pieces of Google's initial advertising and AdSense for
Content systems. He is also a co-designer and co-implementor of the
MapReduce and BigTable systems, has worked on system software for
statistical machine translation, and implemented a variety of internal
and external developer tools.
