When Firefox Faceplants - what the fox says and who is listening
summary
sakuro is Mozilla’s home‑grown crash pipeline: Breakpad in the client posts JSON and up to four binary blobs to six Python collectors in Phoenix, which use a radix/symlink file layout into temporary storage, then a crash mover writes IDs to RabbitMQ and raw crashes to HBase (about 100 TB). Processors run minidump stackwalk to symbolize crashes, save results to HBase/Postgres/Elasticsearch, and handle 3-5 million crashes/day. The system is modular via configman, is in production (live demo crash succeeds), and is adopted by others like Spotify.
