• Uses idle cycles in the cloud
• Compared to 30,000 servers
• 700K fewer lbs of CO2/day
• Like removing 35K cars from the road

“The greatest achievement of our
technology may well be the creation
of tools that allow us to go beyond
engineering – that allow us to create
more than we can understand.”
