[Translation] How we loaded a petabyte into PostgreSQL before New Year — and what happened next

It all started as a joke by the office coffee machine. But, as with every decent joke, it suddenly sounded worth trying — and before we knew it, we were knee-deep in an experiment that turned out to be anything but trivial, complete with a whole minefield of gotchas.It began simply: while everyone else was busy debating hardware tuning and squeezing out extra TPS from their systems, we thought — why not just shove a huge chunk of data into PostgreSQL and see how it holds up? Like, really huge. Say, a one-pe

BYD's all-electric hypercar, the YangWang U9 Extreme, hits a record-breaking 308mph

A new hypercar has dethroned Bugatti's record for the fastest production car, and unsurprisingly, it's an electric vehicle. During a livestream at the Automotive Testing Papenburg testing site in Germany, the YangWang U9 Extreme hit a facemelting top speed of 496.22 kmph, or around 308.33 mph. That metric edges out the previous record from the Bugatti Chiron Super Sport 300+, which achieved 304.77 mph in 2019. Officially, the fastest production... Read more

Изначально мы предположили, что это массовый фишинг с серверов злоумышленников, который каждый день можно встретить на почте любой организации. Но оказалось, что отправитель письма вполне легитимный: он был скомпрометирован злоумышленниками, нацеленными на российские оборонные и промышленные организации.Хакеры использовали сложную схему сокрытия вредоносной нагрузки в архивах-поли Read more

Всем привет! Это вновь Илья Смирнов, архитектор решений из Cloud.ru. В прошлой статье мы рассмотрели традиционные подходы к масштабированию подов и узлов кластера Kubernetes. Но остался нерешенным вопрос — как масштабировать приложение по событиям из внешней системы? Ведь мы хотим, чтобы каждое новое сообщение в очереди RabbitMQ масштабировало нагрузку вверх, реализовать event-driven подход и масштабировать приложение не по метрикам утилизации ресурсов, а по факту появления новых событий от внешних систем..
