ABSTRACT
2007 Google Seattle Conference on Scalability:
Lessons In Building Scalable Systems
Speaker: Reza Behforooz
Since launching Google Talk in the summer of 2005, we have
integrated the service with two large existing products: Gmail and
orkut. Each of these integrations provided unique scalability
challenges as we had to handle a sudden big increase in the
number of users. Today, Google Talk supports millions of users and
handles billions of packets per day. I will discuss several practical
lessons and key insights from our experience that can be used for
any project. These lessons will cover both engineering and
operational areas.
Reza Behforooz is a Staff Engineer at Google and is currently the
technical lead for the Google Talk servers. He's passionate about
building large systems and working on communication products in
an attempt to make the world a smaller place. While at Google, he has primarily worked on Google Talk, Gmail, orkut, Google Groups,
and shared infrastructure used by several Google applications.
Reza holds a BS from Cornell and a MS from Stanford in Computer
Science. Prior to Google, he held various engineering and
management positions at Microsoft and two startups, Zaplet and
Epiphany.Google Tech Talks
