: Plain Scaling

Update: Yahoo! Pipes is no more, and I never wrote much on Plain Scaling, so I’ve folded the entries in here and shut it down.

The recent stuff on Wide Finder has been pretty fun, and I’m typing this during the Velocity conference on performance and operations, so it seems as good a time as any to announce a new blog I’ve created: Plain Scaling. I can’t guarantee it’ll always have lots of stuff in there, but my thoughts on scaling and performance will end up there. In particular, I’ve likely got some more stuff on WF-2 coming following conversations with some Sun guys at Velocity.

Of course, this is more of a pain to follow than just one blog, so I’ve set up a little thing using Yahoo! Pipes to bring them all into one RSS feed containing all my blog entries - at least in theory. Currently it won’t cope with the Atom feed generated from this blog, which seems to be a bug in Pipes; there’s definitely a blog post coming on that. If I can’t fix it using Pipes, I’ll write my own approach, but I really don’t want to.

Anyway. There you are.
