A HighScalability is forever:
- eBay: tens of millions of lines of code; Google code base change rate per month: 50%; Apple: 100 million downloads, Internet: 186 Gbps
- Quotable quotes:
- @OttmarAmann : Scalability is not as important as managing complexity
- @amankapur91 : Does scalability imply standardization, and then does standardization imply loss of innovation?
- Why wireless mesh networks won’t save us from censorship. Shaddi Hasan harshes the buzz on the utopian vision of a darknet freeing us from a SOPA/RIAA/everything tyranny. The reasons: Management is hard and expensive; Omni-directional antennas suck; Single-radio equipment doesn’t work; multi-radio equipment is very expensive; Your RF tricks won’t help you here; Unplanned mesh networks break routing. My take: what can't be routed around must be crushed.
