Abstract: 

Deploying a service across multiple continents is difficult, especially when you have a stateful service. As a service grows to serve a more global userbase, the speed of light becomes an issue. Come and learn how did we scale our service across the ocean at Instagram, and what are the problems we faced during the deployment.
