Now that Surge 2011 is on the horizon, they've generously made available nearly all the videos from the Surge 2010 conference. A pattern hopefully every conference will follow (only don't wait a year please). We lose a lot of collective wisdom from events not being available online in a timely manner. In truth, nearly all the talks are on topic and are worth watching, but here are a few that seem especially relevant: Going 0 to 60: Scaling LinkedIn by Ruslan Belkin, Sr. Director of Engineering, LinkedIn.

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: The GigaOM Network today announces its second Structure conference after the runaway success of the 2008 event. The Structure 09 conference returns to San Francisco, Calif., on June 25th, 2009. Structure 09 (http://structureconf.com) is a conference designed to explore the next generations of Internet infrastructure. Over a year ago, The GigaOM Network Founder Om Malik saw that the platforms on which we have done business for over a decade were starting to provide diminishing returns, and smart money was seeking new options. Structure 09 looks at the changing needs and rapid growth in the Internet infrastructure sector, and this year's event will consider the impact of the global economy. "I cannot remember a time when a new technology had so much relevance to our industry as cloud computing does in the current economic climate," said The GigaOM Network Founder Om Malik. "We all need to find ways to leverage what we have and cut costs without compromising future options. Infrastru

Introduction: Planning your next buildout and thinking SSDs are still far in the future? Still too expensive, too low density. Hard disks are cheap, familiar, and store lots of stuff. In this short and entertaining video Wikia's Artur Bergman wants to change your mind about SSDs. SSDs are for today, get with the math already. Here's Artur's logic: Wikia is all SSD in production. The new Wikia file servers have a theoretical read rate of ~10GB/sec sequential, 6GB/sec random and 1.2 million IOPs. If you can't do math or love the past, you love spinning rust. If you are awesome you love SSDs. SSDs are cheaper than drives using the most relevant metric: $/GB/IOPS. 1 SSD is 44,000 IOPS and one hard drive is 180 IOPS. Need 1 SSD instead of 50 hard drives. With 8 million files there's a 9 minute fsck. Full backup in 12 minutes (X-25M based). 4 GB/sec random read average latency 1 msec. 2.2 GB/sec random write average latency 1 msec. 50TBs of SSDs in one machine for $80,000. With the densi

Introduction: Too often software design patterns are overlooked by network and application delivery network architects but these patterns are often equally applicable to addressing a broad range of architectural challenges in the application delivery tier of the data center. By Lori Mac Vittie, F5 Networks The “ High Scalability ” blog is fast becoming one of my favorite reads. Last week did not disappoint with a post highlighting a set of scalability design patterns that was, apparently, inspired by yet another High Scalability post on “ 6 Ways to Kill Your Servers: Learning to Scale the Hard Way. ” Credit:Michael Chow/azcentral.com This particular post caught my attention primarily because although I’ve touched on many of these patterns in the past, I’ve never thought to call them what they are: scalability patterns. That’s probably a side-effect of forgetting that building an architecture of any kind is at its core computer science and thus

Introduction: Submitted for your reading pleasure... A good night's sleep is why Facebook CTO Bret Taylor says Friendfeed should have gone cloud , let others take the midnight watch, even if it costs a bit more. James Urquhart with an information packed interview on a wide range of cloud topics: Cloud Expert Inside theCube at Stata Conference . Highlights: cloud is an operations model, it is not a technology, it is a way to apply technology to problems; the faster you can get the resources into the hands of the people who use it the more money you save overall; cloud is a cash flow story, not a savings story; services aren't about servers or storage, they are about applications. Quotable Quotes: Ryan Tomayko: Frameworks don’t solve scalability problems, design solves scalability problems. Via @GregSkloot @zuno : The golden rule of scalability: "it can probably wait" look for other areas to save resources. @bihzad : joinserv hit a scalability wall, but I'm pretty s

Introduction: This is a useful post by Frank Mashraqi, Director of Business Operations & Technical Strategy for a top 50 website that delivers billions of page views per month. Since scalability is considered a non-functional requirement, it is often overlooked in the hopes of decreasing time to market. Adding scalability down the road can decrease the time to market but only after assuming significant technical debt. Balancing performance and scalability vs. fast iteration and cost efficiency can be a significant challenge for startups. The good news is that achieving this balance is not impossible.

Introduction: This is a repost of the blog entry written by NuoDB's Tommy Reilly . We at NuoDB were recently given the opportunity to kick the tires on the Google Compute Engine by our friends over at Google. You can watch the entire Google Developer Live Session by clicking here . In order to access the capabilities of GCE we decided to run the same YCSB based benchmark we ran at our General Availability Launch back in January. For those of you who missed it we demonstrated running the YCSB benchmark on a 24 machine cluster running on our private cloud in the NuoDB datacenter. The salient results were 1.7 million transactions per second with sub-millisecond latencies. Public cloud environments typically mean virtualization, inconsistent network performance and potentially slow or low bandwidth disk access. It just so happens that NuoDB was designed to work well in such harsh environments (we don’t call it a cloud database for nothing). Still, the faster the CPU, network and disk t
