Today's LAMP Stack
summary
Maps modern LAMP to the actual components used at scale: uses HipHop for PHP to compile PHP into C++ and reports ~50% CPU reduction on the web tier; stores most user state in MySQL while using Cassandra for 150 TB (inbox search) and a 2,200-node Hadoop cluster holding tens of petabytes (36 PB reported, 50 PB expected) with Scribe + Hive for analytics; recommends choosing databases by access patterns and pushing joins into the web layer.
