Description

Architecture Corner Newsletter Podcast explores the complexities of modern distributed systems and the evolving practices needed to ensure their reliability at scale.

In this episode we will cover:

  • Why traditional load testing falls short for serverless and asynchronous architectures
  • The hidden bottlenecks that synchronous response times can't reveal
  • Measuring what matters: from message queuing to execution completion
  • Cloud provider quotas and scaling limitations that catch teams off guard
  • Practical strategies for testing distributed systems with mixed synchronous and asynchronous components
  • Key considerations when your infrastructure promises infinite scale but reality delivers constraints
