amazon web services
ec2
on-demand computing
api
pay as you go
multiple regions
multiple datacenters
high cpu vs. high memory
elastic block store
more aws products s3 cloudfront cloudformation cloudwatch rds auto scaling
simpledb route 53 load balancing queue service notification service elastic mapreduce
what’s scalarium?
automates: setup configuration one-click deploy
...for ec2 ...on ec2
the dream: configure a cluster push a button boom!

configuration + cookbooks/manifests + chef/puppet = configured cluster

relax consistency requirements
latency
keep data local
None
keep data in memory
cache is king
use raids for ebs
use local storage
use bigger instances
scalarium is ~monolithic
cloud ≠ monolithic
cloud ☠ centralized
small, independent services
self-contained
independently deployable
well defined apis
http/json thrift protocol buffers
sinatra dropwizard spark scalatra
fail fast
retry
internal queues
design for resilience
“think about your software running.” theo schlossnagle, omniti
understand your code’s breaking points
isn’t all that what you do at large scale?
cloud == large scale
scalarium today
scalarium runs on scalarium
None
None
None
lack of visibility
don’t fall for service level agreements
amazon only handles infrastructure
how you build on it is up to you
fun fact
amazon.com is served off ec2
thank you!
