What's inside a Facebook Datacenter Open Compute Rack? 

and the Noah face is moving ROFL

He's cute!

😂

😂😂😂

hahhah

Yeah true, this type of host just asks confirmation because he knows everything already. The networks guy does great in my opinion

That, but 10 times more verbose.

HAHA I immediately searched the comments knowing I wouldn't be the only one! :D

nerdy and hot! YES PLEASE

Same. I've been really curious but can't seem to find information about it anywhere.

Jeff the OCP community have created a Circular Economy hardware market. Watch the presentation by Ali Fenn from the 2019 Amsterdam Regional OCP Summit in the following www.opencompute.org/events/past-summits

😂😂😂

That's the first I'm hearing about it...

It mean u can melt the iron of all rack to get iron.

Open source hardware Hackers make better stuff faster

@@jonlaban4272 not posible, this servers uses exclusive components with amazing hdd, processors and ssd's with capacity you can't imagine and i can't tell you either or im getting fired. So a hacker can make one of these in a whole messy room, and it's not even close because of the crap components out there in the market.

@@bigfloppa2912 haha try better while trolling

@@wiziek developing IA servers for the new meta Facebook era rn, new models running fast af in mass production, maybe you will never know nothing about this but you will see in the coming years people just hanging around in VR universes. Again, you can't just make this kind of equipment with components you can buy from amazon.

Not really. Much of this sort of tech has been around for many years. But it is getting refined as newer silicon comes around.

OCP vanilty free open source servers use up to 50% less energy than traditional proprietary enterprise servers. See the energy study by SK Telecom in the Open Compute RU-vid channel

And a ton of black budget funding

@@PalCan - My IBM 5100 (monument/décoration) is getting jealous.

For them, relatively cheap. For consumers, millions.

Well it's your fault you gave it to them

@@TobiaslieseNo one can argue how critically important computer technology is for all our lives. It has become a basic utility need no less than water and heat for our homes. But water and heat services do not exploit our personal identity like computer companies. Their deceptive manipulation and exploitation of that basic human need is rewarded by greed.

Hey...you have misunderstood

How do you like it at FB, I work at a google data center as a contractor and am looking to try to get a full time job, which is not the direction google is moving towards

Some actually do have a kind of water cooling, where there are radiators in the racks so they can use standard hardware. The air gets pulled through cool radiators and comes out through "absorber" radiators this water then gets cooled centrally. The air which comes out of the back, so after the absorber radiator, is like 20c it's pretty cool (edit: pun inteded ;) )

Some do / did. Most switch mode power supplies are just as happy with DC as AC. However, distributing 350VDC through a facility is quite dangerous. (AC you can actually let go of.)

@@jfbeam I was thinking more like a common 12 volt bus so there wouldn't be any conversion losses, but now that I think about it more, the bus bars would have to be enormous to handle that sort of current, and a fault could be seriously nasty.

And those "desks" as they called them are lightning units. Fastest ones out there.

What a realistic price for this? Lots of custom looking stuff. 100k? 1000k?

@@MusicBent ..speak with people that provide OCP solutions. Menno is a good bloke that know the gear intimately. menno@circleb.eu

I think musicbent is right your looking at around 100k+ that's not to mention the operational costs and upkeep

Christian Darrall whatever the true cost, it means Facebook sells at least that many ads to make X many of these racks worth the cost. Crazy.

They switched from 12V to 48V. "Generally, above 15kW per rack, 12 volt systems become too inefficient to manage", source: www.opencompute.org/files/OCP18-Workshop-Huawei-v2-final.pdf

Thanks

1.25x sounds like TV infomercial .... buy now

And you give them your data by using their service.

What power options does the DC have? If it has DC you'd probably want to look into using that instead of converting it (twice) and losing power in the conversions but if it doesn't have DC available usually you'd want to just go for AC... Either way, you shouldn't base such a decision off of RU-vid comments, ask the supplier who you're ordering from what they think, if they do not have a proper answer move on to a supplier that does.

Image compression, video compression and split renders, livestream encoding, AI for reccomendation system, auto mod, etc... Why do you think big companies dont need GPU?

@@chez14 AFAIK, except for AI, all the other cases you've mentioned are done more efficiently by CPUs rather than by GPUs.

😂

Stuxnet round 2.... FIGHT !

Maybe they're adapting that standard for data centers.

I thought it was 19" or 23" inch racks? 19" for data center 23" for telco and carriers. Is 21" something else?

OCP does 12V and 48V DC power distribution. 48V is looking like it will become more popular because of the higher rack power levels

@@jonlaban4272 Yes, but it still need much trafoing down, thinking most PC part is 12V

@@alfred4683 12V or 48V DC available. Check out the open source hardware at www.opencompute.org

depends on the psu? most of them work with both

Do we know any more information about "William"? is he in any other videos etc, I would be very excited to know more about him.

Twenty OCP cubby servers in a rack including all the powers systems are available for less than $20k

John Laban is there also a 19“ option available (for colo) for some of the bricks?

@@berndeckenfels yes 19inch available Contact steve.helvie@opencompute.org

was thinking the same... Almost all concepts in this video already exists for a long time. Although mostly proprietary and probably much more expensive.

Yeah now everything is open source and well documented. That is huge.

I am curious if managment failed to realize the price over time or if it was a heavy investment done prior and still having to run support on that dedicated hardware system and still being screwed by the vendor.

Indeed, these units are called, as they said "JBOD" (Just a Bunch Of Disks) That's how we call them at the test area, they're just hard drive disks with an insane capacity controled by a "minicomputer" called monolake or twinlake.

Graphic memory is faster for data process.

@@bigfloppa2912 What kind of data process ?

@@rogernevez5187 graphic. These servers are dedicated to store an extremely large ammount of graphic data. The "desk" alike units are called lightning, they have 15 modules with 2 ssd's each one. the ones with the Gpu's are honeybadgers. These 2 handle the process of data and store all that data in the bigger one (bryce canyon).

GPUs are almost always faster if a workload can be split into huge numbers of parallel subtasks.

Where did you get that from? Each of the sleds had QSFPs on them which can run at 40Gbp/s or 100Gbp/s depending on which type its using

The fan isn't in the chassis, so you don't even need to open it up. Blade chassis usually do this too, so not totally new, but all of this looks to be essentially blade type hardware made bigger.

We need more hardware that supports it tho. So it's good to see big companies create an open standard.

It's worth it for Facebook the single most expensive part of Facebooks bottom line that's unavoidable is electricity costs

@@Ayyy-lmao I can imagine that is true

Tons of equipment already runs on 12v or lower. Running 48v then stepping down again makes no sense

...if only Facebook uses it, then it's as standard and as popular as can be

He probably thinks Amazon just needs to store buy & sell listings 😂

they are not facebook

who r you talking to

Yes, this units are in constant improvement, every time easier to assemble and repair, easy to test out and more efficient, with more capacity, etc.

Akbar

So no one can see you're on cocaine.

Try again, champ.

Not as bad as you might think - obviously with the amount of disk, GPU, and CPU thats in the rack the dollar amount is high, but it's on par with consumer grade stuff because the designs are open so anyone can build them

When one looks holistically at financial costs then the savings are huge. e.g. an OCP optimised data centre facility has a CAPX thats 50% lower than a traditional Tier III Enterprice Data Centre. Cost if the biggest driver for adoption of OCP vanity free open source gear

@@jonlaban4272 Alot of that is simply in avoiding "unneeded expenses" You didn't buy a single extra hard disk, you didn't buy a single extra graphics cards,

That is why facebook got so many fucking ads to recover their capital

Andrew York looks like they needed the room to fit the heat sinks.

Aryan Mathura wow.
