A very nice Velocity2009 presentation from Flickr that talks about the paramount cooperation between development and operation teams when working internet-scale (a-la Flickr, 3 billion photos, serving 40,000 photos per second!)
Cool pictures as well – I recommend watching the whole deck, and note slides #6, and #75.

HAITI EARTHQUAKE
Help us raise $200,000 for relief agencies
Haiti needs our help. Relief agencies are scrambling to assist up to 3 million people affected by the devastating earthquake that struck the western hemisphere’s poorest country on January 12. As we learn more about the extent of the catastrophe and watch aid efforts kick into gear, you can lend a hand by making a donation to relief agencies on the front lines.
Through the Salesforce.com Foundation’s matching program, you can double the impact of your donation to one of two organizations we’ve been working with: the Red Cross and World Vision. If you donate even $2, that alone is more than what most of Haiti’s population survives on per day.
Donate by clicking the links on this page, and the Foundation will automatically match, dollar-for-dollar, donations from our community of customers, partners, employees, and friends, up to $100,000. That means that with the Foundation’s matching funds, these critical organizations will get $200,000 in much-needed donations.
Together, we can help these relief agencies that are providing life-saving assistance to the people of Haiti.
Give now! Select an agency, click below to donate online, and your gift will automatically be matched by the Salesforce.com Foundation.
