Performance Engineering: Slides on eBay Architecture Principles and High Performance Computing
I’ve got a couple of pdfs to share with you all in this post. Here are those:
1. eBay Marketplace Architecture – Architectural Strategies, Patterns and Forces – Randy Shoup, eBay Distinguished Architect
2. How to do 100K+ TPS at less than 1ms latency – Martin Thompson & Michael Barker
You can view these pdfs right here with slide notes for impatient souls:
