Summary

Allen Wang talks about how Netflix addresses the issues of stability and scalability in a cloud environment by having many smaller and mostly immutable Kafka clusters with limited state changes. He proves the merit of this architecture in mathematical terms and illustrates how this architecture and additional tooling helps to improve availability, scale and failover.

Bio

Allen Wang is currently with Netflix Real-time Data Infrastructure team where he made significant contribution to Kafka and data infrastructure in AWS. He is a contributor to both Apache Kafka and NetflixOSS and the author of Kafka's rack-aware partition assignment.
