Sam Newman and Chris Read describe the architectural change of a large European website by introducing a caching layer based on Squid in order to scale out to handle increased demand, and the cultural change done by breaking down the dev-ops silos.
In this talk, recorded at QCon London, Mark Nottingham explains how Yahoo! leverages Web technologies, specifically HTTP-based caching using Squid, to create a high-performance architecture for integrating multiple Yahoo! properties, concluding that the Web provides sophisticated techniques without using SOA tooling such as ESBs.
