How Google Search by Image Works

/in , /by

Have you ever wondered how Google Search by Image Works?

Back in 2011 Google announced a new way to find things on the Internet which meant that instead of searching Google for text keywords you can search for images.

How Google Search By Image Works

Google’s Search By Image is found by going to images.google.co.uk or via the “Images” menu tab on Google.co.uk.

You will notice a camera icon on the far right side of the search bar where you enter the keyword text. If you drag an image onto the search bar the Google image search will use the image to find other images that are similar.

You can also copy and paste and image URL into the search bar and this will do the same job.

This is an amazing video showing what Google are achieving when it comes to datacentres. This example has 45,000 servers and when you see the cooling towers and chillers you realsie that is huge investment. The electrical distribution centre and cabling is huge.

Looking at this cooling plant it is shocking how many pumps are used. The chillers use the most power and this was something else we felt shocked at.

These container storage data centers have 3 floors and when you see the UPS system for each server it is shocking how they have managed to fit this all in.

The rooms is kept at 27 degrees Celcius and now we have seen how many servers are in these containers it is clear why Google need all the cooling.
