Facebook’s VP of Engineering Michael Schröpfer

Dribbling out an interview over a series of days is annoying (especially if you don't bother to edit the transcript for basic grammatical correctness). Better to post the entire interview series and then post it as a single article.

thanks. The post was too long to post as one interview.

This is part I in a multi-part series. Mike is a good guys. It was great conversation especially on some of the haystack work to how they are hiring.

Other parts coming soon FB Engineering vision Haystack project Hiring integreted engineering disciplines FB as an OS Open source role within FB How to get more out of Memcache and MySql His vision of cloud computing How involved is Mark Zuckerberg in engineering FB buying spree how do you integrate companies Lessons shared from his work at Mozilla and FB

John Furrier sat down with Michael Schoepfer, FB's Veep of Engineering, and talked about operations at great scale, and how they've avoided the fail whale thus far.
