[mindcrasherTheFox]

According to TorrentFreak report, at present The Pirate Bay has 21 virtual machines (VMs) that are hosted around the globe at different cloud provider.
The cloud technology eliminate the use of any crucial pieces of hardware, thus saved cost, guaranteed better uptime, and made the site more portable, and therefore made the torrent harder to take down.
The Pirate Bay operates using 182 GB of RAM and 94 GPU cores, with total storage capacity of 620 GB, which actually are not used in full.
Out of 21 VMs, eight of the VMs are used to serve web pages, six are dedicated to handling searches, while two VMs currently runs the site’s database and the remaining five virtual machines are used for load balancing, statistics, the proxy site on port 80, torrent storage and for the controller.
