> what _can't_ you run on that? It's ridiculous value. Yeah - I remember a StackOverflow talk[1] where they basically said that they just vertically scale their database. The fact that they were able to make it work tells me that most businesses should probably just go that route and avoid the headache of distributed systems[2]. --- 1. https://www.infoq.com/presentations/stack-exchange/ 2. Obviously a business should probably invest in redundancy when it comes to data (as did StackOverflow), but a pure "Raid 1" setup is the easiest of distributed systems to understand. |
