- Dah00n 4y agoFacebook is a Bad Example on stability at scale..
- panick21_ 4y agoNo it isn't. Running a hyper-scale infrastructure is incredible fucking hard and doing it at all is amazing.
- stopdropnhotpot 4y agoI imagine Facebook uses highly monitored virts that are spawned and destroyed constantly. I really wouldn't call them "servers" more like instances or staging hosts for containers. Root exploits aren't so serious in a ethereal state..
- panick21_ 4y agoThey use lots of different things for lots of different things I would assume. Also most people today use virtualization.
- WhyNotHugo 4y agoFacebook also uses PHP. The fact that somebody made a huge service work with a specific tool doesn't automatically imply it's the best tool, or even a good tool.
