The Art of Capacity Planning by John Allspaw
Success on the web is measured by usage and growth. Web-based companies live or die by the ability to scale their infrastructure to accommodate increasing demand. This book discusses the many techniques and considerations needed to plan, deploy, and manage infrastructure for a growing web application.
John Allspaw, currently Operations Engineering Manager at Flickr, has extensive experience working with websites that have grown exponentially, including Salon.com, InfoWorld.com, Macworld.com, Friendster, and Flickr. At Friendster, he was responsible for their transition from a couple of dozen servers in a failing data center to over 400 machines across two data centers, and the complete redesign of the backing infrastructure.
