High Scalability Building bigger, faster, more reliable websites.

• Paper: Scalability Design Patterns (488)

I have introduced pattern languages in my earlier post on The Pattern Bible for Distributed Computing.

Achieving highest possible scalability is a complex combination of many factors. This PLoP 2007 paper presents a pattern language that can be used to make a system highly scalable.

The Scalability Pattern Language introduced by Kanwardeep Singh Ahluwalia includes patterns to:

• Introduce Scalability
• Optimize Algorithm
• Add Hardware
• Add Parallelism
  • Add Intra-Process Parallelism
  • Add Inter-Porcess Parallelism
  • Add Hybrid Parallelism
• Optimize Decentralization
• Control Shared Resources
• Automate Scalability
