2 0.76049155 807 high scalability-2010-04-09-Vagrant - Build and Deploy Virtualized Development Environments Using Ruby
Introduction: One of the cool things we are seeing is more tools and tool chains for performing very high level operations quite simply. Vagrant is such a tool for building and distributing virtualized development environments . Web developers use virtual environments every day with their web applications. From EC2 and Rackspace Cloud to specialized solutions such as EngineYard and Heroku, virtualization is the tool of choice for easy deployment and infrastructure management. Vagrant aims to take those very same principles and put them to work in the heart of the application lifecycle. By providing easy to configure, lightweight, reproducible, and portable virtual machines targeted at development environments, Vagrant helps maximize your productivity and flexibility. If you've created a build and deployment system before Vagrant does a lot of the work for you: Automated virtual machine creation using Oracle’s VirtualBox Automated provisioning of virtual environments
Introduction: This is guest post by Michael DeHaan (@laserllama), a software developer and architect, on Ansible , a simple deployment, model-driven configuration management, and command execution framework. I owe High Scalability a great deal of credit for the idea behind my latest software project. I was reading about how an older tool I helped create, Func, was used at Tumblr , and it kicked some ideas into gear. This article is about what happened from that idea. My observation, which the article reinforced, was that many shops end up using a configuration management tool (Puppet, Chef, cfengine), a separate deployment tool (Capistrano, Fabric) and yet another separate ad-hoc task execution tool (Func, pssh, etc) because one class of tool historically hasn't been good at all three jobs. My other observation (not from the article) was that the whole "infrastructure as code" movement, while revolutionary, and definitely great for many, was probably secretly grating on a good number of
4 0.75048453 385 high scalability-2008-09-16-Product: Func - Fedora Unified Network Controller
Introduction: Func is used to manage a large network using bash or Python scripts. It targets easy and simple remote scripting and one-off tasks over SSH by creating a secure (SSL certifications) XMLRPC API for communication. Any kind of application can be written on top of it. Other configuration management tools specialize in mass configuration. They say here's what the machine should look like and keep it that way. Func allows you to program your cluster. If you've ever tried to securely remote script a gang of machines using SSH keys you know what a total nightmare that can be. Some example commands: Using the command line: func "*.example.org" call yumcmd update Using the Pthon API: import func.overlord.client as fc client = fc.Client("*.example.org;*.example.com") client.yumcmd.update() client.service.start("acme-server") print client.hardware.info() Func may certainly overlap in functionality with other tools like Puppet and cfengine, but as programmers we always need more than one
5 0.74938124 255 high scalability-2008-02-21-Product: Capistrano - Automate Remote Tasks Via SSH
Introduction: Update: Deployment with Capistrano by Charles Max Wood. Nice simple step-by-step for using Capistrano for deployment. From their website: Simply put, Capistrano is a tool for automating tasks on one or more remote servers. It executes commands in parallel on all targeted machines, and provides a mechanism for rolling back changes across multiple machines. It is ideal for anyone doing any kind of system administration, either professionally or incidentally. * Great for automating tasks via SSH on remote servers, like software installation, application deployment, configuration management, ad hoc server monitoring, and more. * Ideal for system administrators, whether professional or incidental. * Easy to customize. Its configuration files use the Ruby programming language syntax, but you don't need to know Ruby to do most things with Capistrano. * Easy to extend. Capistrano is written in the Ruby programming language, and may be extended easily by writing additional Ruby mod

1 0.9280104 518 high scalability-2009-02-22-Building and Scaling a Startup on Rails: 12 Things We Learned the Hard Way
Introduction: Garry Tan, cofounder of Posterous, lists 12 lessons for scaling that apply to more than just Rails. Use cloud storage for static files. Use HTTP Cache Control to tell the browser what it can cache. Use Sphinx for text search. Use InnoDB for more crash resistant and faster writes. Don't use textbook Rails ActiveRecord objects. Use New Relic to find exactly what is slow in your system. Use memcache later so you find your database bottlenecks now. Use mongrel proctitle to find your slow queries. You are only as fast as your slowest queries. Use asynchronous job queuing to do work in parallel. Use monitoring so you'll know when your site went down and why. Learn by reading the source code, fixing problems, and submitting them back to the community. Use new plugins. Old plugins can't be trusted. Use new information. Old information can't be trusted.

Introduction: TypePad is considered the largest paid blogging service in the world. After experience problems because of their meteoric growth, they eventually transitioned to an architecture patterned after their sister company, LiveJournal. Site: http://www.typepad.com/ The Platform MySQL Memcached Perl MogileFS Apache Linux The Stats As of 2005 TypePad sends 250mbps of traffic using multiple network pipes for 3TB of traffic a day. They were growing by 10-20% each month. I was unable to find more recent statistics. The Architecture Original Architecture: - Single server running Linux, Apache, Postgres, Perl, mod_perl - Storage was NFS on a filer. A Devastating Crash Caused a New Direction - A RAID controller failed and spewed data across all RAID disks. - The database was corrupted and the backups were corrupted. - Their redundant filers suffered from "split brain" syndrome. They move to LiveJournal Architecture type architecture which isn't surprising
4 0.86892128 325 high scalability-2008-05-25-How do you explain cloud computing to your grandma?
Introduction: Update 2: Nice introductory New York Time's article Cloud Computing: So You Don’t Have to Stand Still . Good example of how Animoto used RightScale and Amazon to meet a Facebook driven demand of 25,000 test drives an hour. Update: Peter Laird in Understanding the Cloud Computing/SaaS/PaaS markets: a Map of the Players in the Industry paints a very cool visual map of all the cloud service players. It's a larger industry than you might think. Once upon a time I worked at an Asynchronous Transfer Mode (ATM) switch startup. Over a delicious Christmas punch my grandma asked me what I did for a living that I could afford such extravagantly inexpensive gifts. Always so subtle. I explained I worked on an ATM switch. Mistake. She sniffed, said that's nice, and asked me why the Automated Teller Machine ate her bank card that morning. No matter how hard I tried I couldn't convince her I didn't work on bank ATMs. To all future job interrogations I waxed off, protesting I do boring soft
5 0.86781424 1044 high scalability-2011-05-19-Zynga's Z Cloud - Scale Fast or Fail Fast by Merging Private and Public Clouds
Introduction: Release early and often. A/B testing. Creating a landing page and buying ads on AdSense. All are ways of providing quick feedback in order to validate an idea. If you are like Zynga, with 250 million active users a month, how do you cost effectively prove out a game that could flop or get 90 million users (like CityVille) in an instant? Zynga handles this problem inlle an innovative way, by inverting the typical cloud burst scenario that has excess traffic flowing from a datacenter to a cloud, to having a game start in the cloud and then moving to the datacenter once the game has proved popular enough to keep. This process is nicely described by Charles Babcock in Lessons From FarmVille: How Zynga Uses The Cloud , in an interview with Allan Leinwand, CTO of infrastructure engineering at Zynga. When paired down to its essence, Zynga's strategy goes something like this: Games are risky . Even with all their experience, Zynga can't know how many people will play a game or how
