Howto Forge on How to Install MiraDB on CentOS 7. MiraDB is a lightweight DNS server that is often used instead of the more famous BIND.

Scale is a big factor. It's the only reason google's crappy desktop motherboard, single psu. Single HDD model works. They have have a lot of nodes. The nodes, don't matter. The redundancy isn't in the nodes, it's in the network of the nodes.

Same logic for Facebook's datacenter or BackBlaze's storage pods. Disposable nodes in large quantity.
