30+ Updates per Second per Account: Uber Scales Ledger Processing with Batching
Uber introduced a high-throughput financial ledger processing system designed to handle hot account write contention at scale. Using 250ms batching, Redis coordination, and optimistic atomic updates, the system supports 30+ updates per second per account while preserving consistency and auditability, reducing multi-hour processing pipelines to minutes in its distributed accounting infrastructure.
By Leela KumiliHow a Culture of Data-Driven Conversations Can Support Platform Engineering
To provide SRE as a service, a team built a center of excellence, introducing Federated SREs and roles like production manager and technical tribe lead. They created a culture of data-driven conversations where SLOs and SLAs were democratised. Surviving growing cognitive load meant continuously simplifying architecture and embedding sovereignty and resilience into platform design decisions.

The speakers discuss the architectural challenges of executing safe data deletion across distributed datastores. Balancing durability, availability & correctness, they explain how to orchestrate multi-system deletion propagation without impacting live traffic. They share lessons on controlling tombstone accumulation, building continuous audit loops, and gaining trust with a centralized platform.
By Vidhya Arvind, Shawn LiuArticle: Architectural Change Cases: A Practical Tool for Evolutionary Architectures

By Pierre Pureur, Kurt BittnerAWS Replaces Fat-Tree Data Center Networks with Random Graph Theory, Cutting Routers by 69%
AWS disclosed that Resilient Network Graphs, a flat network architecture based on quasi-random graph theory, is now the default for most new data center builds. The design replaces fat-tree hierarchies with direct ToR-to-ToR mesh connections using passive optical ShuffleBoxes, cutting routers by 69%, boosting throughput by 33%, and reducing network power consumption by 40%.
