Scaling with Spring & Cloud Foundry

this talk looks at how to scale applications. It looks at horizontal duplication, data partitioning and microservices, all set against the backdrop of Spring Integration, Spring AMQP, Spring Session, Spring Data, Spring MVC, Spring Cloud and the Netflix OSS stack.

5. Moore’s Law no longer works @Starbuxman § processing can’t scale up § concurrent, horizontal architectures are easier to scale § “process”-style concurrency is easy to scale still Moore's law is the observation that, over the history of computing hardware, the number of transistors in a dense integrated circuit doubles approximately every two years. The law is named after Gordon E. Moore, co-founder of the Intel Corporation, who described the trend in his 1965 paper.! ! http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moore's_law
6. data @Starbuxman 44000% larger in 2020 than 2009 data production is expected to be :
7. systems are increasingly complex @Starbuxman § a complex system today has a lot of moving parts § security § multiple clients (iOS, Android, Windows Mobile, etc.) § multiple (business) domains § integration between systems § requires more people working on the same problem
8. mobile More than 
 1.5 MILLION activations daily * @Starbuxman * http://www.androidcentral.com/larry-page-15-million-android-devices-activated-every-day
9. social: a connected world in 60 seconds @Starbuxman 3125 photos uploaded 7630 messages sent 7610 searches 2MM videos viewed 2000 checkins 175k tweets 1090 visitors 700k messages sent * source: visual.ly/60-seconds-social-media
10. the internet of things @Starbuxman “In five years, by 2018, Earth will be home to 7.6 billion people, says the United Nations. By contrast, some 25 billion devices will be connected by 2015, and 50 billion by 2020, says Cisco.”! ! http://www.businessinsider.com/what-you-need-to-know-about-the- internet-of-things-2013-3?op=1#ixzz3FxCafwWe § IPv6 gives us more addresses § devices are getting smaller, more ubiquitous § “devices” include homes appliances (refrigerators, washers, coffee machines, dryers), roads, air pollution monitors, (human) body monitors, etc
11. how to think about scale? @Starbuxman Chris Richardson (http://microservices.io/articles/scalecube.html) introduced me to this “scale cube” 
 from The Art of Scaling Software

13. STATELESS APPS
 SCALE
14. no state and lots of gain @Starbuxman § obvious: no state means no sharing § no sharing means that applications can be scaled horizontally easily § requires very little: § HTTP load balancers are ubiquitous. § message queues (like RabbitMQ) make effective load balancers
15. D E M O R A B B I T M Q P I N G P O N G
16. WHAT IF I HAVE SOME STATE?
17. http sessions? @Starbuxman § Spring Session § useful in a PaaS § useful when you need state § useful when you need durable, replicated state § pluggable: Redis out-of-the-box, but feel free to bring your own

20. why PaaS? @Starbuxman Imagine if architects had to be the janitor for every building they designed. This is how the development team felt prior to moving to Windows Azure. Duncan Mackenzie Nov 07, 2011 http://www.infoq.com/articles/Channel-9-Azure “ ”
21. The Impact of the Cloud @Starbuxman § Spring Boot makes it dead simple to stand up services.
 (Where do they live? Who runs them?) § Things get Distributed REALLY quickly! CF provides a way to simplify ! ! § Manifests are are the ultimate installer. 
 (cf push an entire distributed system!) § Spring Cloud PaaS connectors simplify service-consumption > cf push hystrix.jar > cf push …

24. C A P & N O S Q L
25. Brewer’s Conjecture (CAP) @Starbuxman Many datastores provide some of the following three characteristics: ! ! § Consistency ! § Availability ! § Partitionability 
 ! clarification #1: in a system with no network partitions (such as a single- node RDBMS), then there's no need to sacrifice C & A.! 
 clarification #2: availability is a continuous value: 0-100%. there are many levels of consistency, and even partitions have nuances, including disagreement within the system about whether a partition exists.!
26. choose the best store for the job @Starbuxman
27. NoSQL @Starbuxman

29. How it Works in Rails @Starbuxman class Car < ActiveRecord
 end car = Car.new cars = car.find_cars_by_id(232) 
 # where did this method come from? # and then magic happens
30. Using Spring Data Repositories @Starbuxman •Spring Data Neo4J @EnableNeo4jRepositories •Spring Data JPA @EnableJpaRepositories •Spring Data MongoDB @EnableMongoRepositories •Spring Data GemFire @EnableGemfireRepositories @Configuration @EnableTransactionManagement @ComponentScan @EnableJpaRepositories( basePackageClasses = BlogRepository.class) public class ServiceConfiguration { ! @Bean public DataSource dataSource(){ .. } @Bean public PlatformTransactionManager transactionManager(){ .. } }
31. Custom Repository @Starbuxman Keyword Sample Resulting MongoDB Query * GreaterThan findByAgeGreaterThan(int age) {"age" : {"$gt" : age}} LessThan findByAgeLessThan(int age) {"age" : {"$lt" : age}} Between findByAgeBetween(int from, int to) {"age" : {"$gt" : from, "$lt" : to}} NotNull findByFirstnameNotNull() {”firstname" : {"$ne" : null}} Null findByFirstnameNull() {”firstname" : null} Like findByFirstnameLike(String name) "firstname" : firstname} (regex)

 extends AbstractCouchbaseConfiguration { ! @Override protected List<String> bootstrapHosts() { return Arrays.asList( “127.0.0.1" ); } ! @Override protected String getBucketName() { return "default"; } ! @Override protected String getBucketPassword() { return ""; } ! }

44. who’s using Neo4j? @Starbuxman
45. the evolution of search Pre-1999 WWW Indexing Atomic Data 1999 - 2012 Google Invents PageRank Simple Connected Data 2012-? Google Launches the
 Knowledge Graph Rich Connected Data @Starbuxman
46. Recommenda)ons @Starbuxman
47. Graph Search! @Starbuxman
48. What the Cypher Query Looks Like: @Starbuxman MATCH (person:Person)-[:IS_FRIEND_OF]->(friend), (friend)-[:LIKES]->(restaurant), (restaurant)-[:LOCATED_IN]->(loc:Location), (restaurant)-[:SERVES]->(type:Cuisine) ! WHERE person.name = 'Philip' AND loc.location='New York' AND type.cuisine='Sushi' ! RETURN restaurant.name * Cypher query language example http://maxdemarzi.com/?s=facebook

59. micro- vs. monolith… is not a new discussion @Starbuxman From: kt4@prism.gatech.EDU (Ken Thompson) Subject: Re: LINUX is obsolete Date: 3 Feb 92 23:07:54 GMT Organization: Georgia Institute of Technology I would generally agree that microkernels are probably the wave of the future. However, it is in my opinion easier to implement a monolithic kernel. It is also easier for it to turn into a mess in a hurry as it is modified. Regards, Ken
60. hold on a tick.. …didn’t the monolith win? @Starbuxman
61. so what’s so bad about a monolith? @Starbuxman (does your monolith drive you to drink?)
62. boardroom agility pushes tech agility @Starbuxman § boardroom agility manifest in technology: • 2-pizza box teams are a result of eschewing organizational norms ! § easier to scale (in development teams, and at runtime) ! § shorter iterations: • small services > 
 continuous integration > 
 shorter release cycles > 
 deployment automation
63. the elegant microservice @Starbuxman
64. problems with microservices @Starbuxman § hard to deploy (devops!) § hard to tease into separate deployable modules (Boot!) § lots of moving parts introduces complexity (PaaS & Spring Cloud!)
65. W H Y B O O T
66. harder to tease into separate microservices? …No. @Starbuxman import org.springframework.boot.SpringApplication; import org.springframework.boot.autoconfigure.EnableAutoConfiguration; import org.springframework.context.annotation.Configuration; import org.springframework.web.bind.annotation.* ! // assumes org.springframework.boot:spring-boot-starter-web on CLASSPATH @Configuration @RestController @EnableAutoConfiguration public class GreetingsController { ! @RequestMapping("/hi/{name}") String hello(@PathVariable String name) { return "Hello, " + name + "!"; } ! public static void main(String[] args) { SpringApplication.run(GreetingsController.class, args); } }
67. managing many processes with a PaaS @Starbuxman § services are explicit about what they bundle § services are attached resources (locally or remote, who cares) § configuration is external § scaling is easy § isolation is provided at the process level
68. emergent patterns of microservices @Starbuxman § distributed / versioned configuration § service registration + discovery § client-side routing, service-to-service calls § load-balancing § minimizing failure cascades § proxies
