This book describes warehouse-scale computers (WSCs), the computing platforms that power cloud computing and all the great web services we use every day. It discusses how these new systems treat the datacenter itself as one massive computer designed at warehouse scale, with hardware and software working in concert to deliver good levels of internet service performance. The book...(展开全部)

As computation continues to move into the cloud, the computing platform of interest no longer resembles a pizza box or a refrigerator, but a warehouse full of computers. These new large datacenters are quite different from traditional hosting facilities of earlier times and cannot be viewed simply as a collection of co-located servers. Large portions of the hardware and softwar...(展开全部)

本书作者乔纳森•赖利—史密斯是英国剑桥大学教会史教授，国际知名的十字军史研究专家。曾著有《什么是十字军？》、《牛津十字军史》、《第一次十字军东征与十字军观念》。通过这些著作，他推动了十字军研究的重大变革。他认为，十字军东征的动机更多地是出于虔诚、宗教热情、责任感，真诚地期望解放圣地并使之回归基督教的怀抱；而不是出于贪婪和帝国主义。 译者夏继果，历史学博士，首都师范大学历史学院教授，研究方向欧洲中世纪史，现主要从事基督教文明与伊斯兰文明关系史研究。曾出版专著《伊丽莎白一世时期英国外交政策研究》，出版译著《12世纪文艺复兴》、《现代世界的起源》、《全球史读本》、《近代世界体系》（合译）等。在《世界历史》、《史学理论研究》等学术期刊发表论文30余篇。
