I and many others have been working for the last few years on building a large-scale storage system that can manage data across all of Google's datacenters. This system underlies Google's advertising system, among other products. We'll be presenting a paper describing the system (with 26 co-authors!) at OSDI 2012 next month. We've now put up a web page with a link to the PDF of the final version of the paper.
Feedback is welcome, of course."
