- dbman 17y agoReddit did a story about how they're scaling up on Amazon, and what struck me was how low the demand really was. They were serving up 100 hits per second. I remember working on a solution in the 2000/2001 era that dynamically generated pages in the 300 renders per second range...on a low end desktop. Scaling out for a lot of these guys allows them to manage to duct-tape something together in spite of their abilities, not because of it.
