Google Buys Some Extra Computing Power

The details have yet to be released but on June 5th Google reportedly acquired PeakStream Inc.; a firm that appears to specialize in leveraging the power of software on next generation computers.

Google is tight-lipped about the actual size of its monolithic computer network but as you might imagine Google just can’t get enough computing power for its lofty aspirations. I did a little digging and it appears that PeakStream has had at least one pretty amazing breakthrough as of late which might have ‘peaked’ Google’s interest.
