This is a story about dealing with metrics at scale. A lot of metrics.

This is our story of the challenges we’ve faced at Booking.com and how we made our Graphite system handle millions of metrics per second.

If you attend to this session, you will learn about one of the most high load Graphite stacks, the problems it poses and the challenges in maintaining it and scaling it further, pushing Graphite to its limits and beyond.

Pre-requirements: this session can be interesting if you do a monitoring (especially graphs), especially if you already use graphite in your project. It also might be interested as an approach to improve a complex open-source system.
