Fluxo: a system for internet service programming by non-expert developers
Over the last 10–15 years, our industry has developed and deployed many large-scale Internet services, from e-commerce to social networking sites, all facing common challenges in latency, reliability, and scalability. Over time, a relatively small number of architectural patterns have emerged to address these challenges, such as tiering, caching, partitioning, and pre- or post-processing computeintensive tasks. Unfortunately, following these patterns requires developers to have a deep understanding of the trade-offs involved in these patterns as well as an end-to-end understanding of their own system and its expected workloads. The result is that non-expert developers have a hard time applying these patterns in their code, leading to low-performing, highly suboptimal applications. In this paper, we propose FLUXO, a system that separates an Internet service’s logical functionality from the architectural decisions made to support performance, scalability, and reliability. FLUXO achi...
