Big Data Factor | The True Scale of Youtube

What does 500 hours of video uploaded every minute actually look like? In this episode of Big Data Factor, we visualize the staggering physical reality of the world’s largest video library.

From single server racks to massive undersea fiber-optic cables stretching 100,000 miles, we go inside the "factory" that processes over 114,000 years of human attention every single day.

If you tried to watch just one hour of today’s uploads, it would take you three years. If you watched a year’s worth, you’d finish in the Stone Age.
