Hi,
Can you guys share your experience about scalable designs? While there is a lot out there & anyone can research using google but an advice from experienced users who have already used certain techniques will surely help without wasting a lot of time or research. I am aware that one should not worry unless he really needs but keeping basic structure scalable while starting a new project will greatly help on later stages.
There is no one-size-fits-all solution & each project needs a different approach but an advice will help in getting started in a right direction for many newbies.
Please share your suggestions, links to curated resources, tips & techniques for following questions that come to mind:
1- How to design the CI 4, any specific ideas you can share, links to github?
2- Should we split app in different modules & replicate each module on independent servers or replicate whole app?
3- DB: MySQL, MongoDB, PostgreSQL, MariaDB, Cassandra?
4- DB Replication suggestions?
5- Load Balancer: nginx, haproxy
6- Caching: redis, memcached, varnish
7- CDN: cloudflare, cloudflare, akamai, aws, google cdn, microsoft cdn
8- Hosting (Cost Effective): AWS, Google, Azure, Digitalocean, Vultr, etc
9- Anything else you want to add
Best,
