Several Solutions for Queue & Worker Systems
Almost every dating site we’ve built has a job queue of some kind. We enqueue email sends, statistic updates, logging, fraud detection and more. Anything that doesn’t immediately impact the response we’re preparing for the user can be run in the background.
Gone Fishin': Building Super Scalable Systems: Blade Runner Meets Autonomic Computing In The Ambient Cloud
All in all this is still my favorite post and I still think it's an accurate vision of a future. Not everyone agrees, but I guess we'll see...
Galaxy is a high-performance in-memory data-grid (IMDG) that can serve as a basis for building distributed applications that require fine-tuned control over data placement and/or custom distributed data-structures.

The Perils of Asynchrony
Every time you come across anything more than a rudimentary system that has some moderately serious performance needs, someone somewhere on the team considers using asynchronous processing to help reduce (perceived) response time. That person needs to be identified and quickly locked in a padded room . . . .
In Memory Data Grid Technologies
After winning a CSC Leading Edge Forum (LEF) research grant, I (Paul Colmer) wanted to publish some of the highlights of my research to share with the wider technology community.
For most Architects, "Scale" is the most illusive aspect of software architectures. Not surprisingly, it is also one of the most sort-out goals of todays software design.

Brewer's CAP Theorem
On Friday 4th June 1976, in a small upstairs room away from the main concert auditorium, the Sex Pistols kicked off their first gig at Manchester's Lesser Free Trade Hall . There's some confusion as to who exactly was there in the audience that night, partly because there was another concert just six weeks later, but mostly because it's considered to be a gig that changed western music culture forever. So iconic and important has that appearance become that David Nolan wrote a book, I Swear I Was There: The Gig That Changed the World , investigating just whose claim to have been present was justified.

Cloud computing brings both performance and cost benefits to the enterprise: self-service capabilities, task automation, resource pooling, demand aggregation, and application elasticity.As a mature and proven distributed computing technology, Ice provides a host of solutions for accelerating the development and deployment of large-scale distributed applications, including a secure router and bidirectional protocol for firewall traversal, and a data distribution service. IceGrid is a service that expedites the creation of a new class of applications. Grid computing has become increasingly more important to mainstream information technology endeavors as large SMP servers are replaced by many networked commodity servers.

What does everyone think of this article?
I have a question:
In a datacenter for a big website company like Google, do they depend completely on clustering to build their computer infrastructure. Also anybody has any idea about their clustering software that they use. I know they use Hadoop, but they run than on top of already clustered machines running lunix. Hadoop works on clustered machines, but doesn't perform clustering. Any thoughts about that? by Feb 4
Distributed caching
Scalability
You would have to research more material on Google's infrastructure. My understanding is that the are using their own "Big table", and that hadoop is an opensource implementation based on the same research papers. I don't think they are clustering at the linux level. by alexis Feb 4
