Excited to share my introductory blog post on @ZalandoTech engineering blog highlighting the work my team does to build and scale adoption of #GraphQL service to 200+ developers and serving 25-30 feature teams

Check out our first article of a series of posts about how we use #GraphQL #APIs to fulfill #frontend data requirements and gain speed in delivery engineering.zalando.com/posts/2021/03/…

Introducing the Lovable Shopify integration. Today, we're making it possible to build online stores by chatting with AI. To show how it works, we built and launched our first merch store:

Agents will become a common way people shop. So today we are releasing 3 tools to make adding commerce to those agents trivial: - Checkout Kit: embed commerce widgets and checkout(!) directly into your agent and chat. This is already being used by Microsoft’s @Copilot. - Shopify…


Having slack MCP at work has been the best productivity in ages!

The Curse of Brilliance: When dissecting what makes them successful & prolific, people unwittingly tend to overemphasize the things they found very difficult and underplay (or altogether ignore) the importance of things at which they were naturally brilliant.

Stop trying to be everything. Start trying to be remarkable at one thing. Your admission rate will 30x. You'll actually enjoy high school. And you'll develop skills that matter for life. The well-rounded path is a lie sold by people who've never seen the data.

Preliminary GCP outage report is out, and as expected, it’s a bad config change pushed out globally by some automation. A similar incident from 2020 comes to mind (though I bet there are countless other such incidents due to bad global config changes) x.com/copyconstruct/…

A whole slew of Google services (Gmail, Firebase, GKE, GCE, almost every GCP service) had an outage on Apr 13 due to a wrong global configuration change (ha) and bugs in the canary system. Global "centralized planet-space" control plane = global outage. bit.ly/2yOyEb6

Full report for yesterday’s Google outage - not feature flagging a new code path - null pointer crashing a binary when reading empty fields from Spanner - remediation causing a thundering herd as there was no exponential backoff - which required manual throttling to recover from

Google SRE have been using Systems Theoretic Process Analysis (STPA) to anticipate and prevent problems in our complex systems. This opens a whole new paradigm for Google's safety and reliability. Read more in this article in @usenix ;login: magazine. google.smh.re/4hKw

The biggest winner of the AI race will be distributed systems people. Everything is converging onto a distributed network of stuff and it is only accelerating in the last two years.

BFCM Live on the @SphereVegas And I mean truly live! It turns out that the Sphere can be powered by the Unreal Engine, so of course we had to go there. Place an order from your phone, see it arc in front of you!

A order on @SaltandSundry just tipped Shopify over the 1 trillion(!) in cumulative GMV. Monumental milestone for us. A beautiful small business run by Amanda McClemens in DC. Couldn't have been a better example of what makes Shopify special: shopsaltandsundry.com/pages/about

That's a wrap on another incredible BFCM! You got a nerdy preview from @tobi, and we're back with the final stats. Let’s go!🧵👇 We achieved 99.999+% uptime, handling 29.7 PB of data served from across our infrastructure over the entire event! That’s over 5 TB/min.

Nerd BFCM stats: Shopify’s egress processed 145 billion requests on Friday. App servers handled peak of ~60 million requests per minute. Increase of 38%. Total GMV was $4.1b, up by 22% from last year. But Rails doesn't scale so what are we even doing 🤷‍♂️



See what some of our colleagues were upto in last few months 😻💚

Today we celebrate entrepreneurs everywhere in style. Online and on @SphereVegas 🤩

I hope this doesn’t kick the hornet’s nest on a Friday evening, but the problem with “shared ownership” of … well, anything, all but guarantees that the problem becomes a political one, and outcomes hinge on how deft and well-versed engineering leaders are at managing conflict.

This is a big news for the #RUST community. We are adopting RUST at @ShopifyEng for its obvious benefits (read more in the shopify.engineering/shopify-rust-s…) for systems programming and to show the commitment we are joining the RUST foundation as the first gold member.
