Scale: the problem (almost) nobody has, and (almost) everybody wants.
- skrowl 7y agoDevs working at the vast majority of shops: Easily handle production load on 3-5 servers / VMs while reading all about how to script quickly spinning up 1,000 VMs if they really needed to.
- flir 7y agoMy servers are named after my pets and I'm not ashamed to admit it!
- yashap 7y agoThere’s different kinds of scale. I work for a company that has “only” hundreds of thousands of daily active users, but we ingest and persist a lot of data for them, on the order of millions of events per day for some of the larger users. We definitely run into big data problems in select services, despite not having a crazy number of users. Many companies are similar.
