Hello Princeton CS PhD students,

We hope you are surviving the blustery winter season!  Come take a break with Google when we are on campus next week.  We will be hosting a PhD lunch especially for you.   Please join PhD Princetonian software engineers and former Princeton interns.

Chat with Princeton PhD Googlers and former Google PhD interns about what it is like to be a PhD at Google.  Also, for the food and swag!

Please RSVP here <http://goo.gl/f6CvzM> if you will be attending.  The structure of the event is free form, so feel free to drop by for part or all of the event.

We hope to see you there!

Over the years, the software architecture at Facebook has been built to not only scale efficiently but also to support the different needs of a large number of new products. In this talk, I will discuss the overall software architecture and illustrate its evolution using a few case studies.

Sanjeev Kumar is an Engineering Manager at Facebook Inc. where he focuses on a variety of infrastructure projects including multi-datacenter architecture, BLOB storage (for photos and videos), fault tolerance, and power management. Prior to Facebook, Sanjeev was a Senior Staff Researcher at Intel Corp. where he investigated software, hardware, and applications for many-core architectures. Sanjeev holds a Ph.D. from Princeton University, a M.S. from Indiana University, and a B.Tech from Indian Institute of Technology, Chennai (all in Computer Science).
