@lain@lain.comThe seamless scale that people experienced as they signed up by the millions came on the shoulders of over a decade of infrastructure and product development. This was not infrastructure purposely built for Threads, but that had been built over the course of Meta’s lifetime for many products.The speed at which we can scale the capacity of a keyspace is made possible by two key features: First, the service runs on a common pool of hardware and is plugged into Meta’s overall capacity management frameworkWe didn't need to reinventing the wheel, we just happened to find this Official Top Secret Custom Engineered Meta Tire lying around haha
