Paperback. Condizione: New.

In the five seconds it took you to read that, 100 quadrillion bits of data just whizzed through the stack. Our metaphors-cloud, virtual, cyber-blind us to the incredible reality: The Internet is a physical thing: dingy, wet, and rusty. In The Stack, Amrit Tiwana takes us on a journey through this gritty reality.The book begins with its breathtaking physical layer, laden with geography, luck, and history dating to the Civil War era.

Finally, it discusses how we construct resilience out of fragile parts and how quantum computing might affect the stack.…
