Introduction: Nobody came up with an example of a website powered by a Websphere product (which has a community edition) and backed up by a DB2 database. I guess you all know about usopen.org so here's the story: While the re-emergence of 35-year-old Andre Agassi and the continued dominance of wunderkind Maria Sharapova have highlighted the on-court headlines at this year's U.S. Open Tennis Championships in Flushing Meadows, N.Y., IBM is hoping its new Power5 chip-based IT support for USOpen.org can make news among those more interested in .NET than tennis nets. Big Blue has partnered with the U.S. Tennis Association and the U.S. Open -- the most prestigious tennis tournament in the U.S. -- since 1992. Together, they launched USOpen.org in 1995 so racket heads could follow the matches online.

Introduction: In the Amazon Services architecture article the podcast mentions Mashery. I went to their site at http://www.mashery.com/, but I can't quite figure out what it is. They want to: Unleash and manage channels for your API responsibly with Mashery’s combination of security, usage, access management, tracking, metrics, commerce, performance optimization and developer community tools. An example would help, because I am not getting it.
3 0.14315394 240 high scalability-2008-02-05-Handling of Session for a site running from more than 1 data center
Introduction: If using a DB to store session(used by some app server, ex.. websphere), how would an enterprise class site that is housed in 2 different data centers(that are live/live) maintain the session between both data centers. The problem as I see it is that since each data center has their own session database, if I was to flip the users to only access Data Center 1(by changing the DNS records for the site or some other Load balancing technique) then that would cause all previous Data Center 2 users to lose their session. What would be some pure hardware based solutions to this that are being used now? That way the applications supporting the web site can be abstracted from this. As I see now, a solution is to possibly have the session databases in both centers some how replicate the data to each other. I just don't see the best way to even accomplish this you are not even guraunteed that the session ID's will be unique since it's 2 different Application Server tiers(again websphere)

Introduction: 99designs is a crowdsourced design contest marketplace based out of Melbourne Australia. The idea is that if you have a design you need created you create a contest and designers compete to give you the best design within your budget. If you are a medium sized commerce site this is a clean example architecture of a site that reliably supports a lot of users and a complex workflow on the cloud. Lars Yencken wrote a nicely written overview of the architecture behind 99designs in Infrastructure at 99designs . Here's a gloss on their architecture: Stats Team has 8 devs, 2 dev ops, 2 ux/designers Hundreds of thousands of unique visitors a month Tens of millions pageviews a month Stack Largely an Amazon based stack Elastic Load Balancer (ELB) Varnish PHP with Apache/mod_php S3 Beanstalk for in-memory queing using Pheanstalk bindings Amazon's RDS (MySQL) Memcached MongoDB Redis Rightscale/Chef NewRelic, CloudWatch, Statsd Infrastructure

Introduction: Searching around the HS website I noticed that there are no articles regarding db2, which has an express edition, free of charge and from what I know there aren't any restrictions. Being a powerful database system I thought it could make be an alternative to MySQL, PostgreSQL databases. Here is the IBM statement: "DB2 Express Edition for Community (DB2 Express-C) is a no charge data server for use in development and deployment. DB2 Express-C supports a full range of APIs, drivers, and interfaces for application development including PHP, C/C++, and .NET. In addition, DB2 Express-C V9 contains advanced XML features. DB2 Express-C provides ISVs an ideal starting database server for Web, enterprise, and eBusiness applications. This IBM Redbook provides fundamentals of DB2 application development with DB2 Express-C. It covers the DB2 Express-C installation and configuration for application development and skills and techniques for building DB2 applications with XML, PHP, C/C++,

Introduction: Building, scaling, and optimizing the next generation of web applications. Learn the tricks of the trade so you can build and architect applications that scale quickly--without all the high-priced headaches and service-level agreements associated with enterprise app servers and proprietary programming and database products. Culled from the experience of the Flickr.com lead developer, Building Scalable Web Sites offers techniques for creating fast sites that your visitors will find a pleasure to use. Creating popular sites requires much more than fast hardware with lots of memory and hard drive space. It requires thinking about how to grow over time, how to make the same resources accessible to audiences with different expectations, and how to have a team of developers work on a site without creating new problems for visitors and for each other.

On this day site was loading very slow even it was getting time out. I also check out the processes running by using "top" command it was indicating mysql was taking too much load. There are around 166 tables (Including PHPBB forum) in my database. All contents on site are displayed by fetching it from database. I have also added indexing to respective tables where it is required. Plain PHP/HTML coding is used.

Introduction: OK, I know this site is for scalable web site design. But as there aren't any sites I can find for graceful failure under "slashdotted" like pressure I'll ask here. Does anyone have a sensible way, once you have a "web application" that either won't scale, or can't scale, that you can give some users a good consistent experience and bounce other users to a busy site page. I have seen sites do this to varying degrees, some of which work better than others, but no explanations beyond simply bouncing requests to a "we're busy page server" when you have more than a given number of connections. This is obviously useless as a web page likely requires multiple connection (ignoring keep-alive, pipelining etc) multiple connection to completely render properly. The normal problem is users getting a page and not the "furniture" for that page like images or css. Other problems are having to wait ages to get the busy page or the site being slow even if you do "get in". And some site let

Introduction: Forrester released their new wave report: T he Forrester Wave™: Elastic Caching Platforms, Q2 2010 where they listed GigaSpaces, IBM, Oracle, and Terracotta as leading vendors in the field. In this post I'd like to take some time to explain what some of these terms mean, and why they’re important to you. I’ll start with a definition of Elastic Data Grid (Elastic Caching), how it is different then other caching and NoSQL alternatives, and more importantly -- I'll illustrate how it works through some real code examples.

Introduction: Software design patterns are an emerging tool for guiding and documenting system design. Patterns usually describe software abstractions used by advanced designers and programmers in their software. Patterns can provide guidance for designing highly scalable distributed systems. Let's see how! Patterns are in essence solutions to problems. Most of them are expressed in a format called Alexandrian form which draws on constructs used by Christopher Alexander. There are variants but most look like this: The pattern name The problem the pattern is trying to solve Context Solution Examples Design rationale: This tells where the pattern came from, why it works, and why experts use it Patterns rarely stand alone. Each pattern works on a context, and transforms the system in that context to produce a new system in a new context. New problems arise in the new system and context, and the next ‘‘layer’’ of patterns can be applied. A pattern language is a structured col

Introduction: In many posts, such as: The Future of the Parallelism and its Challenges I mentioned that synchronization the access to the shared resource is the major challenge to write parallel code. The synchronization and coordination take long time from the overall execution time, which reduce the benefits of the parallelism; the synchronization and coordination also reduce the scalability. There are many forms of synchronization and coordination, such as: Create Task object in frameworks such as: Microsoft TPL, Intel TDD, and Parallel Runtime Library. Create and enqueue task objects require synchronization that it’s takes long time especially if we create it into recursive work such as: Quick Sort algorithm. Synchronization the access to shared data. But there are a few techniques to avoid these issues, such as: Shared-Nothing, Actor Model, and Hyper Object (A.K.A. Combinable Object). Simply if we reduce the shared data by re-architect our code this will gives us a huge benefits
