Frontend anhand eines Ultra-Large-Scale Systems wie Uber
Diese Arbeit wurde im Rahmen der Vorlesungsveranstaltung „Ultra Large Scale Systems“ erstellt. Abstract Ultra-Large-Scale Systems (ULSS) wie Uber stellen aufgrund ihrer hohen Nutzerzahlen, globalen Verteilung, großen Datenmengen und kontinuierlichen Weiterentwicklung besondere Anforderungen an die Frontend-Architektur. Diese Arbeit untersucht zentrale Architekturentscheidungen für das Frontend einer Uber-ähnlichen Anwendung. Dabei werden Component-based Architecture, Single-Page Applications, Rendering-Strategien, State Management,…
Sustainability in Ultra-Large-Scale-Systems
As software systems evolve into Ultra-Large-Scale (ULS) systems, their impacts extend beyond traditional technical boundaries and increasingly impact individuals, society and the environment. Evolving regulatory frameworks increase the need for transparent measurement and accountability for those impacts across complex software ecosystems. Using Uber’s ride-hailing platform as a case study, this paper examines software sustainability in…

Gigantische Datenmengen auf der DNA
Ein Artikel von Michelle Albrandt, Leah Fischer und Rebecca Westhäußer. Durch die Digitalisierung werden immer mehr Daten erzeugt. Dabei erreicht die Datenbasis durch Vernetzung von Mensch zu Mensch, sowie auch von Mensch zu Maschine, eine neue Dimension (Morgen et al., 2023, 6). Prognosen für das Jahr 2025 zeigen, dass in Zukunft ein erhebliches Datenwachstum zu…
Microservices – any good?
As software solutions continue to evolve and grow in size and complexity, the effort required to manage, maintain and update them increases. To address this issue, a modular and manageable approach to software development is required. Microservices architecture provides a solution by breaking down applications into smaller, independent services that can be managed and deployed individually.…

How to Scale: Real-time Tweet Delivery Architecture at Twitter
There is a lot to say about Twitters infrastructure, storage and design decisions. Starting as a Ruby-on-Rails website Twitter has grown significantly over the years. With 145 million monetizable daily users (Q3 2019), 500 million tweets (2014) and almost 40 billion US dollar market capitalization (Q4 2020) Twitter is clearly high scale. The microblogging platform,…
Queueing Theory and Practice – OR: Crash Course in Queueing
What this blog entry is about The entry bases on the paper “The Essential Guide to Queueing Theory” written by Baron Schwartz at the company VividCortex which develops database monitoring tools.The paper provides a somewhat opinion-oriented overview on Queueing Theory in a relatively well understandable design. It tries to make many relations to every day…
