I'm just wondering if your having same level of scalability concerns, 900 tweets per second and real-time API? More, their problems were mostly rails (Mongrel)

More, their problems were mostly rails (Mongrel) related, should go away with app server being now Unicorn.
- benologist 17y agoI handle a similar rate but different flavour of data, and near-real time. Not really comparable though. I'm not saying what twitter is doing can't or won't be good, just that you should think very hard before you consider it for anything until they've visibly left their own scaling issues behind.
