MezzFS?—?Mounting object storage in Netflix’s media processing platform

The Netflix TechBlog

Mounting object storage in Netflix’s media processing platform By Barak Alon (on behalf of Netflix’s Media Cloud Engineering team) MezzFS (short for “Mezzanine File System”) is a tool we’ve developed at Netflix that mounts cloud objects as local files via FUSE. Our object storage service splits objects into many parts and stores them in S3.

Migrating Critical Traffic At Scale with No Downtime?—?Part 1

The Netflix TechBlog

Replay Traffic Testing Replay traffic refers to production traffic that is cloned and forked over to a different path in the service call graph, allowing us to exercise new/updated systems in a manner that simulates actual production conditions. This approach has a handful of benefits.

Service level objectives: 5 SLOs to get started

Dynatrace

Fitness app : The fitness app should offer a response time of less than 500 milliseconds for exercise tracking and data recording. This SLO enables a smooth and uninterrupted exercise-tracking experience. Note : you might hear the term latency used instead of response time. Latency primarily focuses on the time spent in transit.

Pushy to the Limit: Evolving Netflix’s WebSocket proxy for the future

The Netflix TechBlog

Where aws ends and the internet begins is an exercise left to the reader. Dynomite is a Netflix open source wrapper around Redis that provides a few additional features like auto-sharding and cross-region replication, and it provided Pushy with low latency and easy record expiry, both of which are critical for Pushy’s workload.

Amazon EC2 Cluster GPU Instances - All Things Distributed

All Things Distributed

For example, the most fundamental abstraction trade-off has always been latency versus throughput. Modern CPUs strongly favor lower latency of operations with clock cycles in the nanoseconds and we have built general purpose software architectures that can exploit these low latencies very well. Where to go from here?

A Decade of Dynamo: Powering the next wave of high-performance, internet-scale applications

All Things Distributed

Performant – DynamoDB consistently delivers single-digit millisecond latencies even as your traffic volume increases. DynamoDB automatically re-distributes your data to healthy servers to ensure there are always multiple replicas of your data without you needing to intervene. Auto Scaling is on by default for all new tables and indexes.
