This video was recorded at Code BEAM V EU 2021 - https://codesync.global/conferences/code-beam-sto-2021/ How not to fail at distributed systems with examples from Riak | Nicholas Adams - Director of Global Support Operations at T.I TOKYO ABSTRACT In this talk, we reflect on our years of supporting the Erlang based distributed key/value store, Riak, and share stories of how our clients' best intended configurations have come back to bite them in ways they did not foresee. This talk is intended as edutainment. We showcase some common pitfalls of distributed systems as taken from our Riak helpdesk history, explain why things went wrong and how to avoid making the same mistakes.
