How Netflix Uses Data Abstraction to Operate 100s of Use-Cases

A talk given by Vidhya Arvind from Netflix at the 2024 Austin API Summit in Austin, Texas.

In this talk, I show how to design reliable APIs and layout data for Key-Value services for petabyte-scale datasets. Key-value service uses a control plane and data plane to abstract the data, uses some novel techniques to reliably store and safely scale the service to 100s of instances.
