Creating scalable Web Applications @BastianHofmann
The usual Scaling Talk
Big Data Servers Caching Query Optimization Database Sharding Load Balancing
Indices
But what about the frontend?
Rendering performance Asset loading Content Delivery Networks HTTP Caching Minifying
JavaScript Image Compression Sprites Smooth animations
This talk will not be about any of this!
Application architecture
Structure
Code and component re-use
Rapid Development
Large code-bases
Frameworks to the rescue

Duplication and only some Code re-use

Components
None
Self contained
Can be addressed and rendered separately
Server JS Browser JSON HTML HTML
JS is part of the component
Share code between server and client
Templates, Validation, Entities,...
It needs to be fast
We called them Widgets
PHP Controller Mustache Template JavaScript view class Widget Providing data
Handling browser events Displaying data
Why no models in the frontend? http://backbonejs.org/#Model

Conclusion?
Think about your architecture
Refactor and make it better continuously
Frontend and backend are part of the same application
Don't rewrite your whole codebase in one go
