Alphabet, Amazon and Cloudflare are all looking to make significant savings
Some of the world’s largest cloud computing firms, including Alphabet, Amazon, and Cloudflare, have found a way to save billions by extending the lifespan of their servers – a move expected to significantly reduce depreciation costs, increase net income, and contribute to their bottom lines.
Alphabet, Google’s parent company, started this trend in 2021 by extending the lifespan of its servers and networking equipment. By 2023, the company decided that both types of hardware could last six years before needing to be replaced.
