To be sure, uptime is one component of delivering a reliable application […]
The Challenge of Scaling Metrics in Distributed Systems
Whether migrating from a monolithic architecture or building a distributed system from ground zero, there are many benefits to leverage from a microservices architecture–faster software deployment cycles, enhanced scalability, improved isolation of risk. However, distributed systems are complex and as such, accompanied by many challenges, particularly when it comes to the scalability of metrics. The […]
