This was all a spare time project, as my day job at Netflix at that time was as a director level manager of a team working on personalization code in Java, and it wasnt my job to write the codemyself. One of the Java engineers on my teamJian Wujoined me to help figure out the API. I eventually removed my app from the app store.

Meson was based on a single leader architecture with high availability. As the usage increased, we had to vertically scale the system to keep up and were approaching AWS instance type limits. Figure 1 shows the high-level architecture. The scheduler on-call has to closely monitor the system during non-business hours.

Cloud application security remains challenging because organizations lack end-to-end visibility into cloud architecture. As organizations migrate applications to the cloud, they must balance the agility that microservices architecture brings with the complexity and lack of transparency that can also come with it.

Most organisations go through an architecture modernisation effort at some point as their systems drift into a state of intolerable maintenance costs and they diverge too far from modern technological advances. What architecture will be optimal for enabling that business vision? How are we going to deliver the new architecture?

A brief history of IPC at Netflix Netflix was early to the cloud, particularly for large-scale companies: we began the migration in 2008, and by 2010, Netflix streaming was fully run on AWS. In this architecture, service to service communication no longer goes through the single point of failure of a load balancer.
