Comments on: Youtube bandwidth: terabytes per dayand I mean itBy: Peter- January 23, 2008 dispassionateanalysis: You should note that the graph is logarithmic. The black bar stands for 200.00 TBd, which is 8.33 TBh = 138.89 GBmin = 2.31 GBs = 18.52 Gbps Since the graph axes are expressed in GbpsTbps, the plotted value is 18.52 Gbps, which is at 42% between the 1Gbps and the 1 Tbps mark.http://blog.forret.com/2006/05/youtube-bandwidth-terabytes-per-day/#comment-202013 By: dispassionateanalysis- January 22, 2008 Your graph is horribly incorrect, and you should change it. It purports to show (the title of the graph is completely ambiguous) the sustained rate of data transfer per second needed to provide 200 Tb of data per day, averaged over the course of a day. There are 1440 minutes in a day, or 86400 seconds in a day. You have the black bar set (no numbers are given) 14 to 13 of a Tbs. In somewhere between 800 to 600 seconds, "a server" would transmit (if it could, of course there is a server farm)...http://blog.forret.com/2006/05/youtube-bandwidth-terabytes-per-day/#comment-201699 |
