As a little trip down memory lane this was the first post on High Scalability, an unbelievable five years ago. The purpose of the site as laid out here has not really changed at all. The goal is to help people do their jobs better and I think more times than not that's what has happened...
We started High Scalability to help you build successful scalable websites. This site tries to bring together all the lore, art, science, practice, and experience of building scalable websites into one place so you can learn how to build your system with confidence. Hopefully this site will move you further and faster along the learning curve of success. Please Start Here
