This was a fantastic presentation. She covered a huge amount of material in a short time. What they've done and how they've done it is very impressive.

InfoQ is doing excellent job by bringing these talks to us.

That’s the great presentation . To the point and not super technical . Newbie like me in the world of architecture can understand

"I need to learn about scaling" heads to youtube, finds this video "Wow, I now know EVERYTHING about scaling". The best video on scaling infrastructure i've found so far. No jargon, no acronym's, specific detail about exactly how things are balanced, routed, managed and replicated. Love it.

This is a treasure box ! Thank you Miss/Mrs XYZ for the super lucid explanation.
-
Great presentation! I'm dealing with many of the scaling challenges discussed by Lisa in my organization. Although they vary and Instagram's solution does not solve my challenges, but Lisa certainly offers any view of how great companies address them.

Every architecture video should be like this, instead of marketing BS.

Nice presentation. There are bunch of things that can be improved for detection of the time series jumps by Fourier transformation of the time series and comparing the two frequencies on a predetermined delta of difference.
