I think the key here is that their architecture allowed for a bit of scaling. How many companies don't have that? You were given a chance and you capitalized on it because you could. I wonder how many other companies failed to capitalize on their chance and went bust.

Really I'm not sure what you mean - only the most naive web architectures wouldn't allow for some type of scalability. The way they did it was with the old "Throw More Machines At It " method. I'm not sure this ever really shows a mo better web arch - even spaghetti PHP can do that pretty easily.
