#ApacheKafka tech lead at @Shopify. Views are my own 🇪🇨🇨🇦




Yesterday was an incredible day for our merchants and for Shopify: * Merchants drove a record-breaking $5 billion Black Friday in sales (GMV) * Peak sales / minute for yesterday = $4.6 million * Shopify's egress processed more than 173B requests * Peak requests per minute was at 284 million on edge, with more than 80 million on app servers pushing 12TB a minute * 45 million peak database queries per second, peak database writes was 7.6 million per second * We rely on Kafka. At peak we hit 66 million messages per second Let's keep going 🔥

Our #ApacheKafka streaming infrastructure served 29 million messages per second at peak. That’s 45% growth from 2022 – and we did it more efficiently this year with 14% fewer brokers.

@V3_XD talking about @Shopify usage of Kafka, just 862 brokers 😯

Great presentation from @V3_XD about increasing @apachekafka resilience with DNS traffic management #Current23
