118 million queries per second on Neki

We released Neki in platform preview yesterday. To celebrate the release, we wanted to test out running 1 million queries per second on Neki. We hit this goal pretty quickly on 5 shards and decided to see how much further we could push it. This next run ended with 512 shards running 118 million queries per second with 1.22 PiB of data. Linear scalability The benchmark was very simple. A single-shard point select, one row fetched per-query by primary key. No writes, joins, or cross-shard queri

How to prepare your website for Black Friday: the 12-week plan

Black Friday 2026 lands on 27 November. That is eleven weeks from today, and most sites that fail that morning failed weeks earlier, when nobody rehearsed the traffic. What follows is a twelve-week countdown, so you are already a week behind. That is fine. The order matters more than the calendar: targets before testing, testing before fixing, fixing before freezing, and no unproven code into the day. A website is ready when it can serve the peak number of simultaneous shoppers you expect, at sp

React Server Components para veteranos de SPA

React Server Components para veteranos de SPA Ya sabes construir una SPA. Has publicado varias. Usas useState, usas useEffect, montas un fetch, y a estas alturas escribes esa estructura casi sin pensarla. Los Server Components rompen ese automatismo. Casi todas las explicaciones que vas a encontrar arrancan desde el lado del framework: el routing, el bundling, el formato en que viajan los datos. Para alguien que ya tiene un modelo mental armado y funcionando, ese orden es el peor posible. Así

React Server Components for SPA Veterans

React Server Components for SPA Veterans You already know how to build a single-page app. You have shipped several. You reach for useState, you reach for useEffect, you wire up a fetch, and by now the shape of that code arrives before the thought does. Server Components break the reflex. Most explanations of them start from the framework's side — routing, bundling, the wire format — which is exactly backwards for a developer whose mental model is already built and working. So this one starts f
