Prioritizing simplicity improves performance and reliability
- jlelse 7y agoHow do you want to do server provisioning with 100 times the users you have currently? Just curious because it seems like a lot of effort to setup every server manually.
- ddevault 7y agoThe effort is really not that much - it's like 20 minutes per server, and each one can service a lot of users. And since the application is broken up into several independent components, they can be scaled separately according to their particular demands. The needs change depending on where the bottlenecks are, so it's not as simple as X users = Y capacity, but this is more helpful than not - because it lets me use more fine-grained scale planning.
