Presumably one would use autotune to find optimized parameters, and then roll those out via change control, either one parameter at a time, or a mix of parameters across the systems.
Alternatively: if you have a fleet of thousands of machines you can very easily do a binary search with them to a)establish the problem with the auto-tuner and then b)which of the changes it settled on are causing your problems.
I get the impression you've never actually managed a "fleet" of systems, because these techniques would have immediately occurred to you.
- spenczar5 2y agoCertainly when we managed Twitch’s ~10,000 boxes of video servers, neither of the tasks you describe would have been simple. We underinvested in tools, for sure. Even so, I don’t think you can really argue that dynamically changing configs like this are going to make life easier!
