When you need to scale putting all your eggs in one basket is a risky strategy. Why use JSP when you can do better? When use entity beans when you can do better? Use servlets because they are a very effective way of handling http requests.

Introduction: OK, this interview is with me on Java scalability issues. I sound like a bigger idiot than I would like, but I suppose it could have been worse. The Java World folks were very nice and did a good job, so there’s no blame on them :-) The interview went an interesting direction, but there’s more I’d like add and I will do so here. Two major rules regarding Java and scalability have popped out at me: Java – It’s the platform stupid . Java the language isn’t the big win. What is the big win is the ecosystem building up around the JVM, libraries, and toolsets. Java – It’s the community stupid . A lot of creativity is being expended on leveraging the Java platform to meet scalability challenges. The amazing community that has built up around Java is pushing Java to the next level in almost every direction imaginable. The fecundity of the Java ecosystem can most readily be seen with the efforts to tame our multi-core future. There’s a multi-core crisis going in case you haven’t

Introduction: Update 3 : ReadWriteWeb says Google App Engine Announces New Pricing Plans, APIs, Open Access . Pricing is specified but I'm not sure what to make of it yet. An image manipulation library is added (thus the need to pay for more CPU :-) and memcached support has been added. Memcached will help resolve the can't write for every read problem that pops up when keeping counters. Update 2 : onGWT.com threw a GAE load party and a lot of people came. The results at Load test : Google App Engine = 1, Community = 0 . GAE handled a peak of 35 requests/second and a sustained 10 requests/second. Some think performance was good, others not so good. My GMT watch broke and I was late to arrive. Maybe next time. Also added a few new design rules from the post. Update : Added a few new rules gleaned from the GAE Meetup : Design By Explicit Cost Model and Puts are Precious. How do you structure your database using a distributed hash table like BigTable ? The answer isn't what you might expect. If

Introduction: In  Google+ Is Built Using Tools You Can Use Too: Closure, Java Servlets, JavaScript, BigTable, Colossus, Quick Turnaround  we glimpsed inside Google's technology stack for building Google+. Mark Knichel, an engineer on the Google+ infrastructure team, has helped us look a little deeper  on how Javascript is handled in Google+.  Here's a quick look: They love Closure  for its library, templates, compiler, and strict type checking. Compilation is now required for good performance. I've wondered if GWT will be killed off as have other Google properties, but I've been told GWT is being used heavily inside Google, so thankfully that probably won't happen. Closure templates are used both Java and JavaScript to render pages server-side and in the browser.  Just-in-time JavaScript. Code is split into modules so the minimum amount of JavaScript is loaded asynchronously in the background as necessary. Navigation happens without loading the page. Page navigation happens without pag

Introduction: A giant step into the fully distributed future has been taken by the Google App Engine team with the release of their High Replication Datastore . The HRD is targeted at mission critical applications that require data replicated to at least three datacenters, full ACID semantics for entity groups , and lower consistency guarantees across entity groups. This is a major accomplishment. Few organizations can implement a true multi-datacenter datastore. Other than SimpleDB, how many other publicly accessible database services can operate out of multiple datacenters? Now that capability can be had by anyone. But there is a price, literally and otherwise. Because the HRD uses three times the resources as Google App Engine's Master/Slave datastatore, it will cost three times as much. And because it is a distributed database, with all that implies in the CAP sense, developers will have to be very careful in how they architect their applications because as costs increased, reliability incre

3 0.72653377 1563 high scalability-2013-12-11-Using Node.js PayPal Doubles RPS, Lowers Latency, with Fewer Developers, but Where Do the Improvements Really Come From?

Introduction: PayPal gives yet  another glowing report of an app rewritten in node.js experiencing substantial performance improvements. PayPal rewrote their account overview page, one of the most trafficked apps on the website, which was previously written in King Java. The benefits: Full-stack engineers. Using JavaScript on both the front-end and the back-end removed an artificial boundary between the browser and server, allowing engineers to code both. Built almost twice as fast with fewer people  Written in 33% fewer lines of code  Constructed with 40% fewer files Double the requests per second vs. the Java application. 35% decrease in the average response time for the same page. A common pro Java response is an argument like clearly these people don't know how to program Java. Or rewriting an application usually makes it faster. Or the benchmark is faulty. And so on. Consider it noted. These are all potential factors. Baron Schwartz from VividCortex has a different tak

Introduction: Ebay [1] Starts in 1995, initial name AuctionWeb (V1) : - very simple architecture - based on perl - no database, for data persistence they used plain files Because of rapid growth they needed to improve their architecture and so V2 (clever name) was born: - replaced perl with C/C++ - started using a database in a master-slave configuration - C++ back-end - XSLT front-end Any request will lead to an XML file being created in C++ and the XLST processor will transform that into html. *pretty sophisticated architecture for the 90s, XLST was cutting-edge back then* That hold out pretty well for a while but in the late 90s ebay experienced an exponential growth. They started having some trouble with outages and needed improvements, so V3 was developed: - based on java - search engine still used C++ - proof that relational databases can scale (aggressive caching) - developed a messaging layer for making a lot of asyncronious calls, they a

3 0.81699008 278 high scalability-2008-03-16-Product: GlusterFS

Introduction: Adapted from their website: GlusterFS is a clustered file-system capable of scaling to several peta-bytes. It aggregates various storage bricks over Infiniband RDMA or TCP/IP interconnect into one large parallel network file system. Storage bricks can be made of any commodity hardware such as x86-64 server with SATA-II RAID and Infiniband HBA). Cluster file systems are still not mature for enterprise market. They are too complex to deploy and maintain though they are extremely scalable and cheap. Can be entirely built out of commodity OS and hardware. GlusterFS hopes to solves this problem. GlusterFS achieved 35 GBps read throughput . The GlusterFS Aggregated I/O Benchmark was performed on 64 bricks clustered storage system over 10 Gbps Infiniband interconnect. A cluster of 220 clients pounded the storage system with multiple dd (disk-dump) instances, each reading / writing a 1 GB file with 1MB block size. GlusterFS was configured with unify translator and round-robin scheduler

Introduction: Cal Henderson writes at thinkvitamin.com : "With our so-called "Web 2.0' applications and their rich content and interaction, we expect our applications to increasingly make use of CSS and JavaScript. To make sure these applications are nice and snappy to use, we need to optimize the size and nature of content required to render the page, making sure we’re delivering the optimum experience. In practice, this means a combination of making our content as small and fast to download as possible, while avoiding unnecessarily refetching unmodified resources." A lot of good comments too.
