Reliability, Availability, and Scalability – How to have your cake, and eat it too

Udi Dahan Udi Dahan

Architects love the word “scalability”. We talk about transactions per second and page views per day and on and on.

Of course, none of that scalability means anything if the system is down or if data gets lost or corrupted. Finding the right balance between reliability, availability, and scalability for the various parts of a system is critical to avoid unnecessarily costly solutions. This presentation will show a set of patterns that strikes this balance, their connection to supporting technologies, and their applicability across many enterprise domains.

You can have it all.
