| What's the cost of a millisecond | DevOpsDays Tel Aviv 2024 | 2024-10-30 |
Shows that a 1 ms delay deep in the stack can amplify into hundreds of milliseconds — example arithmetic 16 ms becomes 740 ms because of queuing and retries… | ||
| The Math of Scalability | SREcon22 Europe/Middle East/Africa | 2022-10-25 |
Uses math to prove counterintuitive scaling effects: traffic at Burning Man shows adding lanes slows flow, the birthday paradox gives collisions at 23 people… | ||
| What's the Cost of a Millisecond? | SREcon21 | 2021-10-12 |
Claim: tiny delays amplify everywhere because queues, head‑of‑line blocking and retries compound multiplicatively. Uses an M/M/1 simulation, Kingman’s formula… | ||
| The Math of Reliability | ApacheCon@Home 2021 | 2021-09-21 |
Begins with Guinness and the origin of the student t-test, then shows concrete math: a 15s probe with a 4-fail alert threshold gives 0.4^4 = 2.56% per-try but… | ||
| Cloud Native: The Cattle, the Pets, and the Germs | Cloud Native & OSS Day Tel Aviv 2019 | 2019-12-03 |
Argues that the cattle metaphor is outdated and cloud native systems behave like germs: large, semi‑autonomous, constantly dying and being born. Cites… | ||

"We have a problem in production! does it reproduce in staging?" is a sentence often uttered in many companies. Underlying this simple sentence lie implicit… | ||
| Cloud native: the cattle the pets and the germs | DevOpsDays Tel Aviv 2018 | 2018-12-18 |
Argues that cloud native has moved from “pets” and “cattle” to an ecology of ephemeral cells: containers, Kubernetes, serverless (Lambda) and cloud databases… | ||
| Can I Tell You a Secret? I See Dead Systems | SREcon18 Europe/Middle East/Africa | 2018-08-29 |
Modern systems carry 40+ year old cruft that still shapes behavior: sending an interrupt to the keyboard controller on every boot to switch CPU mode (the 8042… | ||
| Resilient Design 101: Queue Theory | Build Stuff 2017 | 2017-11-15 |
Wix runs ~500 microservices for ~100 million users and queue theory explains why latency explodes as utilization nears 100%: small variance makes queues grow… | ||
