Software techniques that tolerate latency variability are vital to building responsive large-scale web services. Systems that respond to user actions quickly, within 100ms, feel more fluid and natural to users than those that take longer. Improvements in Internet connectivity and the rise of warehouse-scale computing systems have enabled web services that provide fluid responsiveness while consulting multi-terabyte datasets spanning thousands of servers. For example, the Google search system updates query results interactively as the user types, predicting the most likely query based on the prefix typed so far, performing the search and showing the results within a few tens of milliseconds.
This is a “Papers We Love” meetup. We will discuss the paper - The Tail at Scale - by Jeff Dean and Luiz André Barroso.
Discussant: Piyush Goel will present the paper. Piyush is Vice President of Engineering at Capillary Technologies. He has vast experience with building systems from ground up. Piyush is also an active member of various communities, and is passionate about sharing insights from his work.
