Speaker: Bart de Water

How do you enable millions of entrepreneurs to run their businesses on your platform? And how do you deal with product launches that suddenly bring millions of requests per minute from one moment to the next?

This talk will walk through how Shopify works under the hood using the customer journey from the initial visit to paid order as our guide. Then we'll dive into our multi-tenant architecture that allows us to add and rebalance shards with no downtime, prevent failures from taking down multiple systems, and prepare for the biggest multi-flash sale event: Black Friday.

Join Eder Ignatowicz of Red Hat as he explores architectural issues with a panel of experts from some of the world's largest architectures.
