Petabyte-Scale Deployments: Balancing Immutability and Flexibility

At Salesforce, our team does Kubernetes deployments at the petabyte scale, with 100+ clusters, 10000+ pods, and 25+ PiB of provisioned storage and innumerable Kubernetes jobs. Operating at this massive scale necessitates an approach that reduces engineering toil. Maintaining such mammoth clusters while keeping security in mind is a whole different challenge.

We specifically talk about how and why we picked immutability and Infra-as-code as the cornerstone of our design and the challenges around it. Immutability provides security and scalability and eliminates config drift. Infra-as-code guarantees that changes to our infrastructure follow the same software lifecycle. but the trade-off is a lack of flexibility to adapt to changing requirements.

In this talk, we go over the unique design choices that help us manage, grow, and configure petabyte-scale deployments at Salesforce.

Boundless Scale: Blueprint for Petabyte Dominance using Apache Bookkeeper

The demand for scalable data storage is relentless as businesses grapple with exponentially growing data volumes.
Salesforce's innovation with Apache Bookkeeper has emerged as a game-changer, pushing scalability boundaries.

The traditional way Bookkeeper used its metadata store - Apache ZooKeeper, struggled to keep pace as storage scaled beyond the Petabyte mark.

Salesforce's innovation on the architecture allows the storage service to scale beyond the petabyte realm effortlessly, dramatically reducing the load on ZooKeeper and unlocking unprecedented scalability with 500+ node bookie clusters in the public cloud.

Join us as we share the challenges we overcame, design choices, trade-offs and learning. We're showcasing how Salesforce's blueprint for petabyte supremacy is redefining scalability limits while working with the Apache Community.
