Internet Scale Services Checklist

A checklist for designing and developing internet scale services, inspired by James Hamilton's 2007 paper "On Desgining and Deploying Internet-Scale Services."

Basic tenets

Does the design expect failures to happen regularly and handle them gracefully?
Have we kept things as simple as possible?

I use Play 2.5.6 with Scala and found several interesting modules but I think some basic and really useful features are still missing...

Here is my sample app where I do my tests :

I list here needed features (according to me) from the most needed to the least needed.

Useful Scalac Flags

So, there have been some discussions and angry tweets recently about irritating Scala "features" (like value discarding and auto-tupling) that can actually be turned off by selecting the right compiler flag in conjunction with -Xfatal-warnings. I highly recommend a set of options something like those below.

scalacOptions ++= Seq(
  "-deprecation",           
  "-encoding", "UTF-8",       // yes, this is 2 args
  "-feature",                
 "-language:existentials",

Setup vagrant vm

vagrant box add precise64 http://files.vagrantup.com/precise64.box
vagrant init precise64
sed -i '.bak' 's/# config.vm.network :private_network/config.vm.network :private_network/' Vagrantfile
vagrant up
vagrant ssh

Install base software and apache (to have something to proxy)
