E-commerce and online transaction websites often organize events which involve millions of user visiting and using websites. To the outside world, this is just an event. Internally, however, these events involve massive preparations for the IT infrastructure to handle such loads and volumes. What does it take to be prepared? What are the common points of failure? What lessons can DevOps teams in other verticals learn?
On 8th November 2014, HasGeek and Flipkart have organized a mini Rootconf to understand these war stories.
Venue
Flipkart, 4th floor, Vaishnavi Summit Building, No. 6/B, 7th Main Road, 80ft Road, Koramangala, Bangalore - 560034
Format

In the afternoon, we have organized a four-hour workshop on SELinux.

Submitted Oct 31, 2014
Section:
Full talk
Technical level:
Beginner
Audience will gain insight into what does it take to build a highly scalable, secure transactional system and what are the pitfalls to avoid.
Outline
FreeCharge has grown more than 10x in terms of transaction volume over last one year. Even this growth has been exponential, most of which coming over last few months. In this session I talk about how we scaled our architecture to handle the volume, challenges we faced, trade offs we had to take without compromising on the beautiful and fast customer experience. This session is about our journey of 10X we embarked upon and the learnings we got out along the way.
