Overview

Every time an Instagram engineer commits code to master (up to 40 times a day), it is automatically tested and deployed to a fleet of thousands of web servers in as little as 10 minutes. Michael Gorven describes the iterative approach Instagram took to build this system, the problems it faced along the way, the solutions it implemented, and the key principles which enable this to work.
