Hi Emre,

Every system works at small scale. The interesting part is what happens after that.

The Enterprise Track at SCaiLE 2026 brings together engineers from some of the most demanding production environments in tech to talk through the moment their architecture stopped keeping up, and what they did next. They’ll explore sharding strategies that hit dead ends, migrations done without downtime, and the trade-offs that only show up at hundreds of thousands of queries per second.

Real systems, real numbers, and the parts that didn't go to plan. Hear the stories live October 15th at the Computer History Museum in Mountain View, CA.
