The document discusses how a Lithuanian startup re-architected their website on Windows Azure to address scaling issues as their traffic grew from 20,000 to potential spikes of 50 page views per second, including moving content to blob storage, splitting the database and hosting across multiple VMs, and leveraging other Azure services like caching. It describes the scaling issues encountered at various traffic levels and how the site was restructured on Azure with different computing, data, and networking services to allow for flexibility and scalability.
True story of re architecting website for scale on windows azure
- 1. True story of re-architecting website for scale on Windows Azure
- 2. 1,3 billion+ web transactions / day 3 datacenters / 300+ servers
- 3. Lithuanian-based startup 20K+ unique visitors per month can go viral any day soon
- 4. HOSTING WINDOWS AZURE Linux | Apache | MySQL | PHP Linux | Nginx | FTP website, blog static content database photos
- 5. 20K+ ~260K page views / month ~9K page views / day ~1K page views / hour ~0,2 page views / second but spikes up-to 50 page views / second
- 6. Cloud gives more flexibility and scalability options Windows Azure is Microsoft’s Cloud Platform BizSpark gives Windows Azure for free for 1 year Let’s move!

- 10. SCALING ISSUE #1 Dedicated VM for storing content is suboptimal in the cloud Manual management & scaling No backups
- 11. BLOB STORAGE
- 12. WINDOWS AZURE Linux | Apache | MySQL | PHP Linux | Nginx | FTP website, blog static content database photos
- 13. WINDOWS AZURE Linux | Apache | MySQL | PHP HTTP website, blog static content database photos
- 14. SCALING ISSUE #2 Static content on the same VM as website and blog Different scalability targets Photos are part of static content
- 15. WINDOWS AZURE Linux | Apache | MySQL | PHP HTTP website, blog static content database photos
- 16. WINDOWS AZURE Linux | Apache | MySQL | PHP HTTP website, blog database static content
- 17. SCALING ISSUE #3 Database on the same VM as website and blog Very different scalability targets and strategies
- 18. WINDOWS AZURE Linux | Apache | MySQL | PHP HTTP website, blog database static content
- 19. WINDOWS AZURE Linux | MySQL Linux | Apache | PHP database website, blog HTTP static content
- 20. SCALING ISSUE #4 Blog on the same VM as website Different scalability targets
- 21. WEBSITES
- 22. WINDOWS AZURE Linux | MySQL Linux | Apache | PHP database website, blog HTTP static content
- 23. WINDOWS AZURE Linux | MySQL Linux | Apache | PHP IIS | PHP database website blog HTTP static content
- 24. FURTHER SCALING
- 25. SCALING ISSUE #5 Website gets more requests than can handle
- 26. WINDOWS AZURE Linux | MySQL Linux | Apache | PHP IIS | PHP database website blog HTTP static content
- 27. WINDOWS AZURE Linux | MySQL Linux | Apache | PHP IIS | PHP database website blog HTTP static content
- 28. SCALING ISSUE #6 Database gets more queries than can handle
- 29. WINDOWS AZURE Linux | MySQL Linux | Apache | PHP IIS | PHP database website blog HTTP static content
- 30. WINDOWS AZURE Linux | MySQL Linux | MySQL write-only database read-only database Linux | Apache | PHP IIS | PHP website blog HTTP static content
- 31. SCALING ISSUE #7 Read-only database gets more queries than can handle
- 32. WINDOWS AZURE Linux | MySQL Linux | MySQL write-only database read-only database Linux | Apache | PHP IIS | PHP website blog HTTP static content
- 33. WINDOWS AZURE Linux | MySQL Linux | MySQL write-only database read-only database Linux | Apache | PHP IIS | PHP website blog HTTP static content
- 34. SCALING ISSUE #8 Write-only database gets more queries than can handle
- 35. This is a nice issue to have Split write-only database into shards with multiple read- only slaves for each shard accessed via layer of distributed cache
