FluxCapacitor: A Highly-scalable, Highly-available Distributed Reference App
summary
A runnable reference architecture that assembles Netflix OSS pieces into a deployable demo app, claiming out‑of‑the‑box scalability and availability and actually producing a Netflix tech blog forked by Netflix engineers. Uses Eureka service discovery, Hystrix bulkheads and dashboard, Servo/Graphite/CloudWatch metrics and DynamoDB, with Asgard/CloudFormation or Beanstalk deployment and Chaos/Latency Monkey fault injection. Deployments see real load‑test costs (a $250 CloudWatch bill) and clients extend business logic on top.
