Presentation: "Uptime in High Volume Messaging Systems — Lessons Learned"
Track:
Systems that never stop
Time: Thursday 15:35 - 16:35
Location: Metropolitan Ballroom II & III
Abstract: This talk will cover lessons learned at Urban Airship
building highly available, high volume messaging systems that operate
with a minimum of customer-visible downtime. We will highlight
techniques and practices from low-level software idioms, mid-level
component approaches up through higher-level architecture philosophies
that are currently in production at Urban Airship serving billions of
notifications to hundreds of millions of devices. The talk will not
only cover current approaches but will also include unsuccessful
approaches that should generally be avoided.
