Clouds of Cocaine
summary
Yandex describes a cloud OS called Cocaine that treats everything as a service, with a service locator, storage called analytics storage (open source) and deterministic deployment. It runs Docker containers using Linux namespaces and cgroups, spins workers up and down to handle bursts, and uses IPVS kernel load balancing to stream binary protocols instead of just HTTP. Yandex claims production use, high durability and fast scaling; Yandex search had 62% Russian share in July 2013.
