Microservices by Martin Fowler @ Goto Conference

January 19, 2015Adnan Masood

An interesting portrayal of Microservices by Martin Fowler.

The Clairvoyant Load Balancing Algorithm for Highly Available Service Oriented Architectures

April 1, 2013Adnan Masood

Abstract: Load balancing allows network devices to distribute workload across multiple processing resources including server clusters and storage devices. This distribution helps maximize throughput, achieve optimal resource utilization, minimize response time and help use hardware effectively in multiple data-center locations. As a meta-heuristic enhancement to Psychic Routing[1], researchers present early work in a novel algorithm…
