USENIX is excited to announce the launch of the inaugural SREcon14, which will bring together the site reliability engineering community to discuss the evolution and future of this technical realm. There’s much more to running a large-scale architecture than just pure software development: in order to have a system that can run 24/7, reliability, performance, and efficiency must also be considered. When you look at every single piece of...
