Is lyft considered extremely large scale?
- _bxg1 8y agoWell, that's the question. The guy basically makes the case that it isn't, for this purpose, and that Netflix and Dropbox are. Good insight into the hairy details, but the overall thesis is pretty simple.
- solidasparagus 8y agoI would say he's making the case that Lyft doesn't have a single component with ridiculous scale like Netflix CDN or Dropbox storage. That could just mean Lyft's costs are more evenly distributed.
