i’m surprised facebook doesn’t offer something akin to aws, gcp, azure, etc

November 18th, 2016

Given the ridiculous popularity of Facebook, their huge datacenter investments, super-resilient computing models, etc, I’m very surprised they haven’t gotten into the cloud computing business like Amazon’s AWS, Google’s Cloud, Microsoft Azure, Digital Ocean, etc.

  GDPR is crazy!`We show that despite needing to introduce a small set of new features, a strict real time compliance (eg, logging every user request synchronously) lowers #Redis’ throughput by ∼95%. Our work reveals how GDPR allows compliance to be a spectrum, and what its implications are for system designers.`https://arxiv.org/pdf/1903.04880.pdf(via http://highscalability.com/blog/2019/4/19/stuff-the-internet-says-on-scalability-for-april-19th-2019.html)

  One bright morning in the middle of the night, two dead boys got up to fight. Back to back they faced each other, Drew their swords and shot each other. A deaf policeman heard the noise and ran to save the two dead boys. If you don’t believe this lie is true ask the blind […]
- it’s all politics
  Many years ago, one of my colleagues told me, “if there’s more than two people in the room, there’s politics”. He’s the same guy who told me to never go into a meeting without a prop (his favorite was a cup of coffee (and sometimes a notebook & pen)). I think Jim was wrong. There’s […]
