SOA architecture based on REST APIs. In SOA, build circuit breakers to shed load early and start sending 503s if your service is choked. I also wish we were on SOA from day one, it took us some time to reach there but we are there now. OpenTSDB/bosun. Apache FTP server. ReactJS/Backbone/Marionette/JQuery/npm/Nightwatch.
