Design Exercise Latency Processing 
The Netflix TechBlog
SEPTEMBER 8, 2020
For each route we migrated, we wanted to make sure we were not introducing any regressions: either in the form of missing (or worse, wrong) data, or by increasing the latency of each endpoint. Being able to canary a new route let us verify latency and error rates were within acceptable limits. This meant that data that was static (e.g.
The Morning Paper

This is a fascinating paper from members of Netflix’s Resilience Engineering team describing their chaos engineering initiatives: automated controlled experiments designed to verify hypotheses about how the system should behave under gray failure conditions, and to probe for and flush out any weaknesses. Safeguards.

There are many possible failure modes, and each exercises a different aspect of resilience. Another problem is that a design control, intended to mitigate a failure mode, may not work as intended. Staff should be familiar with recovery processes and the behavior of the system when it’s working hard to mitigate failures.
All Things Distributed

Amazon ElastiCache embodies much of what makes fast data a reality for customers looking to process high volume data at incredible rates, faster than traditional databases can manage. Redis's microsecond latency has made it a de facto choice for caching. TB of in-memory capacity in a single cluster.
All Things Distributed
OCTOBER 2, 2017
With these requirements in mind, and a willingness to question the status quo, a small group of distributed systems experts came together and designed a horizontally scalable distributed database that would scale out for both reads and writes to meet the long-term needs of our business. This was the genesis of the Amazon Dynamo database.
