Vitess is an open source project that packages many of the ad-hoc processes and conventions that grew out of managing and scaling MySQL at YouTube.
It is now at the core of our MySQL serving infrastructure, and is primarily written in Go. In this session, we’ll cover our vision of where the project is headed as well as what we’ve achieved so far. We’ll go over some of the challenges and wins due to using Go as the language of choice. We’ll also share tips on how to write scalable servers using Go.
Sugu Sougoumarane works for the YouTube architecture team. He's worked on various scalability projects there. He currently works on the Vitess open source project. Prior to YouTube, Sugu worked for the architecture team at PayPal where he built many of PayPal's core features. He also has many years of experience in development environments, compilers, and computer graphics.
Mike Solomon works at YouTube focusing on distributed systems. He collaborated on the recently released Vitess project and is actively working improvements to the efficiency of Youtube's MySQL infrastructure.
