“Scale” is a complex notion that encompasses some easy-ish-to-measure factors such as the resource footprint or transaction rate of a system, but also substantially more subtle considerations such as service dependencies that influence the cost of making changes and team behaviors that affect how long it takes to resolve a production issue.
This talk will offer some experiences — successes and failures — in applying the principles and practices of software architecture as leverage over a few challenges typical of large-scale systems. These challenges will include operability, observability, and product delivery velocity.
