Josh Owens: One Daemon To Rule Them All

One daemon to rule them all, the perils of monolithic architechtures:

This talk focuses on the perils and pitfalls that can befall a developer as they focus on a “do-it-all” type of daemon. We will explore the beginnings and evolution of the tweethopper daemon system and discover the insights I’ve learned as it has developed.
Some key points include:

• Monolithic systems making logging and debugging hard
• Focused daemon systems are easier to test
• Focused daemon systems are easier to deploy
• Focused daemon systems are easier to scale
• A flexible multiple daemon system allows for easier replacement of one piece
• Examine tools available in ruby to build fast and scalable daemons
