Do they implement CQRS ?? not clear ; what kind of postgres scaling ?; Any SOR layer - System of record; what ORM ??; some high level banter about postgres DB tuning with no specifics; Query optimization no specicifs

Wow

Bruh he laughed when he said mongo

Understanding this is as exciting as watching paint dry.

Really love these kind of set up which transform from such small set of users to millions . But the belief that a small tech team is good enough once they get through the roots of the system is really great.

Fantastic presentation, Managing upgrades without affecting global customer is a huge challenge, and it's inspiring to see Gitlab achieve it 🎉

This is exactly what I've been looking for! We're struggling with downtime during our PostgresSQL upgrades . Thanks Gitlab for sharing your insights!

It works... until it doesn't

Atleast mention the speaker name in video title or in the description

Apart from ml to intercept traffic, a very simple yet effective scaling strategy comes from how Java hashmap actually works. You can set a 75% threshold and double (or any multiplier you want) your capacity once that threshold is reached. Start with 10 nodes - becomes 20 - becomes 40 - becomes 80 and so on so forth. You can also reduce the multiplier weight with each increase only slightly to not overwhelm your cost chart (a min weight needs to be set and weight reduction cannot go beyond that)

A little bit over provisioning when serving 2 million requests with an sla is better than being conservative.

Only 30 people managing application used by millions of users and their revenue is 7000cr. Excellent job guys keep rocking. 👏👏👏

Great insight on java out of memory exceptions.

Great Content!. Kindly share the ppt as well if possible.

at 26:08, you realize that it is a mallu asking questions.

Better if you can move to the cloud. AWS or Azure both provide great support.

Making of CTO ...Developer to CTO

31:19 Postgres Learnings

the best part is, no fancy technology stack to run pretty heavy and real-time system. A perfect masterpiece of great software engineering.

Zerodha sits on top of SEBI's tech APIs. God, One has to listen from SEBI on how their orchestration is.

He wants to keep talking light but the audience is damn serious

Inspiring to say the least❤

awesome

great video

super anna

At 37:27, not just the speed of computation, but also the egress cost of transferring all that unnecessary data over the wire to your server from database to perform reduce type computations which can simply be done on the database layer itself. And if you find yourself querying such data frequently, then you can have materialised views for it, making it even faster. Finally, if your use case doesn't require the most latest data and is fine with eventual consistency, then you can add a caching layer in front of it, making it blazing fast.

Caching is the answer to all of your questions in this talk 😂😂

Nomad, which software was it?

Great talk

i watched this video in 1.5x still felt slow and boring.

Great conference, loved the insights 👍🏻

Will Zerodha opt for Tiger Beetle for their transaction?

Amazing, How about data and other laws , How is that taken care of in self hosted systems.

almost feels like the internal Malayali in him is waiting to burst out by trying to ruin his accent from time to time with certain words hahah great talk!

Great content, very informative!

His brain sits on top his heart ❤. He is so calm and composed. He is real alpha man

Insightful

Thanks again!

Only 30 people.. 👏👏👏

Super interesting :) more such insights tech talks🙌

Loved the insights on Zerodha's tech innovations!!

Zerodha doesn't have replicas and doesn't have slaves. All they have is a sorry when they server or db crashes. People lose money, and they think replicas are not important.

Wow, 7.6 M users !!🫡

What is the name of the person speaking?

Can you share the RCAs on recent failures on the kite platform

What is his name?

Where does this kind of tech conferences happens?

Boring is good for you. Thanks for sharing the knowledge.

Aaaaa.....aaaaaa.....aaaaaa......aaaaaaa.. Amm emmm aaaaaa aaaaaa... What that.... Silly
