There are very few people who actually think that how information flows through these physical locations which are called data centers. Google had a chance to personify the experience of extra ordinary inside structure of data centers with the collaboration of artists in the world.

Google is famous for its innovative product and features. From Search to Driver-less cars, we have numbers of innovative solutions by Google. This time, Google wants to show the world what’s going on in its data centers. This project has been named as Data Center Mural Project.
