Designing Instagram

High Scalability

When a user requests for feed then there will be two parallel threads involved in fetching the user feeds to optimize for latency. This will not only reduce the overall latency in displaying the user-feeds to users but will also prevent re-computation of user-feeds. Some of the keys of understanding the user network are listed below.

Predictive CPU isolation of containers at Netflix

The Netflix TechBlog

Because microprocessors are so fast, computer architecture design has evolved towards adding various levels of caching between compute units and the main memory, in order to hide the latency of bringing the bits to the brains. This avoids thrashing caches too much for B and evens out the pressure on the L3 caches of the machine.

Titan Graph Database Integration with DynamoDB: World-class Performance, Availability, and Scale for New Workloads

All Things Distributed

When using relational databases, traversing relationships requires expensive table JOIN operations, causing significantly increased latency as table size and query complexity grow. Another example is for tracking inventory in a vast logistics system, where only a subset of its locations is relevant for a specific item.
