DevOps and infrastructure, Security. Internal tools is correct, but speed, video quality as well as sound seems so easy. Google is responsible for many compression algorithms and standards - byproducts so to say. And they are top notch.
I have insights into the matters, and a lot goes into behind the scene optimization. Some specialists in the pre-AI phase were tasked to do nothing else but optimize build tools but in the sense of tweaking every millisecond out of it. This guy saved Google Billions over the years.
Others work in compiler building etc.
There are a couple of hints in the books by Google engineers but I am regularily blown away during meetings what really highly inspiring things are there to discover as well as presented.
Another factor: Google is spread around the globe. Regulation, law. Believe me, having over a billion users per app is mindblowing.
And it is 24/7/365. And support. And research.
Google is a company I admire. Technical provess at its finest.
