Radical Ideas from the Practice of Cloud Computing
Thomas A. Limoncelli, Stack Exchange, Inc.
Tom will highlight some of the most radical ideas from the new book “The Practice of Cloud System Administration”. Topics will include: Most people use load balancers wrong; you should randomly power off machines; cloud computing will eventually be so inexpensive you won’t be able to justify running your own hardware, the most highly reliable systems are built on cheap hardware that breaks a lot, and sysadmins should never say no to installing new releases from developers. And many more!
