Numbers worth blogging about.
Just caught this post on mashable with some numbers that are rather interesting:
Facebook hosts over 10 billion photos. Yes; BILLION.
They also store 4 sizes of each; so really it’s 40 billion images!
More numbers:
- 2-3 Terabytes of photos are being uploaded to Facebook every day
- They have just over one petabyte of photo storage
- They serve over 15 billion photo images per day
- Photo traffic peaks at over 300,000 images served per second
They’re close to as cool as YouTube with this stat: “every minute, ten hours of video is uploaded to YouTube.“
