That's porn for database geeks: 100 million pageviews per day, 300k requests per second against Redis. The way they use MySQL is also interesting IMHO: they populate a relational database in order to be able to build new indexes in the Redis side, using the relational DB for the stuff it is best at, generating new "views" of the data easily. (Relational DBs are also good to do a zillion more things of course.)

For some reason I always imagine porn sites to be run by guys in cheap suits and lots of hair gel. Then I realize that in order to run a site with the kind of traffic that some of them have, you really need to have some decent engineers on staff.

Some time ago I've read an IAmA on reddit with staff member of some big porn portal. It was quite interesting but I don't remember what porn site it was and don't want to blindly trying to google it as I'm at work. Writing this in case anyone knows and would post it here :)
the guy from pinklab http://www.pinklab.com/reddit.html talked around there, but can't find the link. there were also some others, even a guy who ran a 2g1c kind of site.
