leave a comment »

A recent promotional video produced by Microsoft’s Environmental Sustainability group revealed how many servers Microsoft actually has.

Some quick stats gathered from the video: 15 datacenters hosting 148,357 servers sitting on 17,406 racks consuming 72,500KW of utility power as of the end of January 2008. If you’re a bit of a imperial measurement person, that’s 97,000 horsepower.
