Hi Omar,
Great talk, thanks for sharing your experience. I learnt lots of new stuff.
Please correct me if I am wrong, but mostly this is vertical scalability (apart from CDN) and I was wondering if you would mention some horizontal scalability techniques, perhaps like load balancing, CQRS, database sharding or replication. Do you have any posts or talks on horizontal scalability?
Thanks,
Oleksii
