That would be the part of Netflix not running on AWS. :-)
So the library feed can serve tens of thousands of streams, an aggregate 100Gbps, on a single node. And then... how many nodes to support the front-end UI operations to get to that point?
It's funny how amazingly efficient we can be moving encrypted bits, but to support the APIs for login, browsing titles, updating account info, and setting up a stream; I'm going to guess ~100 of those nodes for every one of your stream-tanks?
