BACKEND HIGHLIGHTS
Schemaless uses an append-only sparse three dimensional persistent hash map. A datastore developed by Uber with 5 goals in mind:
1) Linear scale - more storage and decreased response times
2) Writability - no middleware for fallback or retry
3) Notifications - triggers for downstream dependencies
4) Secondary Indexes - just like in Postgres to search for trips
5) Operational Trust - expert knowledge for mission-critical data
DATA STORAGE WITH SCHEMA LESS
Trip details are stored as JSON blobs with versioning
DATA STORAGE WITH SCHEMA LESS
MICRO-SERVICES
Moving from a monolith solution to SOA created challenges related to
obviousness, safety, and reliance. Our SOA architecture had to enable us for …
1) Discoverability - finding the right service out of 300+ should be trivial
2) Client Libraries - building SDKs for encapsulated services should be easy
3) Language - we need to have an architecture that is language-agnostic
4) Customizable - timeouts and retry policies are required and should be tunable
5) Efficiency - testing and development of new services with less overhead
THRIFT AS IDL-BASED ENCODING PROTOCOL
Thrift forces service owners to publish strict interface definitions. Encoding/Decoding
is efficient, compression is good, and it unifies JSON blobs for Schemaless.
DAILY DEPLOYMENT WITH UDEPLOY
Consistent builds for services, zero downtime upgrades, automated error detection
