In the previous article , we spoke about hunting bugs. But a time will come when your hunters trophy collection grows to a scary size. More and more targets will be coming as if it were a zombie apocalypse. There will be red lamps flashing across your metrics dashboard. If (or rather when) that happens, it would mean its time for a bigger change than just routine debugging and streamlining your codebase.

Event-driven architecture (EDA) gives your system the ability to receive and respond to changes in real time, making it easier to scale. Decoupling components is the core theme of EDA, which makes it flexible, allowing it to scale asynchronously based on events. This approach makes systems reactive, scalable, and resilient to failures. Designing and maintaining, like any other large-scale framework, requires deep thinking and constant monitoring.

Comparing site outages to page slowdowns is like comparing a tire blowout to a slow leak. One is big and dramatic. The other is quiet and insidious. Either way, you end up stranded on the side of the road. Downtime is horrifying for any company that uses the web as a vital part of its business (which is to say, most companies). Some of you may remember the Amazon outage of 2013, when the retail behemoth went down for 40 minutes.

CPU cores have become significantly wider over the past decade. Ten years ago, the highest-performance CPUs could decode only up to four instructions simultaneously and execute up to eight instructions. However, top-tier CPUs released in recent years have grown to nearly twice this width. For example, Apple’s M4 processor , released in 2024, can decode 10 instructions simultaneously and execute up to 19 instructions.
