Rewriting your C++ app in Python can help it scale from 1000 servers to 100,000 servers without an increase in total throughput (although latency may increase.)

Rewriting your C++ app in Python can help it scale from 1000 servers to 100,000 servers without an increase in total throughput (although latency may increase.) It can also scale your power usage up from 1KW to 1000KW. If you have a datacenter that is 99% idle, you may be able to maximize utilization by switching to Python.
