The design of a reliable message distribution service for Google.
By: John Reumann, Google
This tutorial will discuss the design of a process-to-process messaging infrastructure service for Google that helps connect loosely-coupled applications in a manner that is close to real-time, while ensuring reliable data transfer during inevitable problems in a large scale network deployment. This middleware itself is run as a shared service in a manner that is similar to a shared file system. The rational for this design choice and its practical implications will be presented. Important dependencies on other Google infrastructure services will be detailed as well.
