Introduction: Here's my template for describing the architecture of a system. The idea is to have people fill out this template and that then becomes the basis for a profile. This is how the Friends for Sale post was created and I think that turned out well. People always want more detail, but realistically you can only expect so much. The template is definitely too long, but it's more just a series of questions to jog people's memories and then they can answer whatever they think is important. What I want to ask is if you can think of any things to add/delete/change in the template? What do you want to know about the systems people are building? So if you have the time, please take a look and tell me what you think. Getting to Know You * What is the name of your system and where can we find out more about it? * What is your system is for? * Why did you decide to build this system? * How is your project financed? * What is your revenue model? * How do you market you

Introduction: Update: Jake in Does Django really scale better than Rails? thinks apps like FFS shouldn't need so much hardware to scale. In a short three months Friends for Sale (think Hot-or-Not with a market economy) grew to become a top 10 Facebook application handling 200 gorgeous requests per second and a stunning 300 million page views a month. They did all this using Ruby on Rails, two part time developers, a cluster of a dozen machines, and a fairly standard architecture. How did Friends for Sale scale to sell all those beautiful people? And how much do you think your friends are worth on the open market?  Site: http://www.facebook.com/apps/application.php?id=7019261521 Information Sources Siqi Chen and Alexander Le, co-creators of Friends for Sale, answering my standard questionairre.

Introduction: Kent Langley was kind enough to create a profile template for Joyent , Kent's new employer. Joyent is an infrastructure and development company that has put together a multi-site, multi-million dollar hosting setup for their own applications and for the use of others . Joyent competes with the likes of Amazon and GoGrid in the multi-player cloud computing game and hosts Bumper Sticker: A 1 Billion Page Per Month Facebook RoR App . The template was originally created with web services in mind, not cloud providers, but I think it still works in an odd sort of way. Remember, anyone can fill out a profile template for their system and share their wonderfulness with the world.

Introduction: With Lavabit shutting down  under murky circumstances , it seems fitting to repost an old (2009), yet still very good post by Ladar Levison on Lavabit's architecture. I don't know how much of this information is still current, but it should give you a general idea what Lavabit was all about. Getting to Know You What is the name of your system and where can we find out more about it? Note: these links are no longer valid... Lavabit http://lavabit.com http://lavabit.com/network.html http://lavabit.com/about.html What is your system for? Lavabit is a mid-sized email service provider. We currently have about 140,000 registered users with more than 260,000 email addresses. While most of our accounts belong to individual users, we also provide corporate email services to approximately 70 companies. Why did you decide to build this system? We built the system to compete against the other large free email providers, with an emphasis on serving the privacy c

Introduction: A series of recent surveys on the subject seems to indicate that this is indeed the case: Research conducted by HP found that the majority of businesses in the EMEA region are planning to move their mission-critical apps to the cloud. Of the 940 respondents, 80 percent revealed plans to move mission-critical apps at some point over the next two to five years. A more recent survey, by research firm MeriTalk and sponsored by VMware and EMC (NYSE: EMC ), showed that one-third of respondents say they plan to move some mission-critical applications to the cloud in the next year. Within two years, the IT managers said they will move 26 percent of their mission-critical apps to the cloud, and in five years, they expect 44 percent of their mission-critical apps to run in the cloud. The Challenge - How to Bring Hundreds of Enterprise Apps to the Cloud The reality is that cloud economics only start making sense when there are true workloads that utilize the cloud inf

Introduction: How do you layer a programmable Internet of smart things on top of the web? That's the question addressed by  Dominique Guinard  in his ambitious dissertation:  A Web of Things Application Architecture - Integrating the Real-World  ( slides ). With the continued siloing of content, perhaps we can keep our things open and talking to each other? In the architecture things are modeled using REST, they will be findable via search, they will be social via a social access controller, and they will be mashupable. Here's great graphical overview of the entire system:   Abstract: A central concern in the area of pervasive computing has been the integration of digital artifactsts with the physical world and vice-versa. Recent developments in the fi eld of embedded devices have led to smart things increasingly populating our daily life. We de fine smart things as digitally enhanced physical objectsts and devices that have communication capabilities. Application domains are for i
