Flagged - title is editorialized. Correct title is "Interview with Raffi Krikorian on Twitter's Infrastructure". Edit: This has been fixed now. Thanks.

This actually seems like a disguised recruitment piece, until the last answer where it plainly is. There are little to no actual technical details about their SOA implementation other than handwaving about splitting their monolithic app into services and the benefits it brings. I guess it's just meant to entice developers with stories of the awesome solutions they will get to maintain as a cog in Twitter.

Let me split the difference between you and the other replies to you: it's classic tech-blog material. The journalist mistakes "id's" with "ideas" several times, and the engineer being interviewed is happy to share the fruits of his labor.

You, on the other hand, seem to care way too much about how others perceive Twitter. Why?

Spent time reading it only to find it to be a recruitment fluff piece devoid of any useful information at all. Angry at myself for even bothering to finish it...
