Traffic jumps from 1,500 to 100,000 requests per second. And nothing breaks.

Description

That's because we were ready. Farhad Farahi, our Director of Cloud Engineering, shares the 3 rules behind the infra that can process 6 billion API requests in a single day: 1️⃣ Cattle, not pets: every service is replaceable, so failures don’t matter. 2️⃣ Decouple everything: one issue doesn’t take the whole system down. 3️⃣ Observability not monitoring: you don’t just see problems, you trace them This is how you scale without downtime or your cloud bill exploding. #cloudengineering #devops #adjoe #softwareengineering #backend #techtips
