Google Servers

This story was released on April 1, but if it's a joke I can't find the funny bit. Google has revealed some information about their servers that used to be secret. Rather than centralized UPSs, each Google server has its own 12-volt battery attached. Also, their "data centers" are standard shipping containers, each of which contains 1,160 servers.
