  Al3x - we're more scalable than we were a year ago, but we're not yet reliably horizontally scalable. Why? Because there are significant portions of our system that need to be rewritten to meet that goal: 2008-05-22: dev.twitter.com

  As a fellow developer, I am constantly amazed by the comments on Tech Crunch, etc., that trivialize the enormous challenges you guys face.

  • Twitter is, fundamentally, a messaging system. Twitter was not architected as a messaging system, however.

  • Twitter is, fundamentally, a messaging system. Twitter was not architected as a messaging system, however. For expediency's sake, Twitter was built with technologies and practices that are more appropriate to a content management system. Over the last year and a half we've tried to make our system behave like a messaging system as much as possible, but that's introduced a great deal of complexity and unpredictability.
  • Our direction going forward is to replace our existing system, component-by-component, with parts that are designed from the ground up to meet the requirements that have emerged as Twitter has grown.
