LinkedIn serves traffic for its 467 million members from four data centers and multiple PoPs spread geographically around the world. Serving live traffic from from many places at the same time has taken us from a disaster recovery model to a disaster avoidance model where we can take an unhealthy data center or PoP out of rotation and redistribute its traffic to a healthy one within minutes, with virtually no visible impact to users. The geographical distribution of our infrastructure also allows us to optimize the end-user's experience by geo routing users to the best possible PoP and datacenter. This talk provide details on how LinkedIn shifts traffic between its PoPs and data centers to provide the best possible performance and availability for its members. We will also touch on the complexities of performance in APAC, how IPv6 is helping our members and how LinkedIn stress tests data centers verify its disaster recovery capabilities.

- Good morning, my name is Michael Kehoe and in this presentation I’m going to talk about how LinkedIn shifts traffic between it’s PoP’s and datacenters to avoid disaster and improve site performance at scale
- So this morning I want to talk about the problem that we’re trying to solve, particularly in the context of APAC which is extremely challenging for internet companies Then we’ll deep-dive into how LinkedIn solves these problems to improve our availability and site performance. Specifically we’ll look at: Datacenter shifting PoP steering We’ll look at some of the challenges of operating in the APAC region, briefly talk about IPv6 adoption and then I’ll take questions
- So who am I? I’m a Staff Site Reliability Engineer (commonly referred to as SRE) at LinkedIn. I am on a team called Production-SRE, our team charter includes: Developing applications to improve MTTD and MTTR Build tools for efficient site issue troubleshooting, issue detection & correlation Assist in restoring stability to services during site critical issues Yes I have a slightly strange accent, it’s Australian with three 3 years of American.
- Site Reliability Engineering A term coined by Ben Treynor from Google You may also find it being called Devops/ Appops or Production Engineering Skillset based of: Sysadmin Network Engineer Architect Troubleshooter Software Engineer Role consists of: Architecture design Capacity planning Application Operations – Keeping the site healthy Writing automation and tooling SRE role/ philosophy differs between companies. At LinkedIn, SRE’s are responsible for DNS/ CDN management and traffic infrastructure
- So before we deep-dive, let’s go over some terminology PoP – Where LinkedIn terminates incoming requests to it’s datacenters. Spread geographically across the world Fabric – Datacenter where the full LinkedIn application stack is deployed. LinkedIn has 3 datacenters in the US and one in Singapore Loadtest – Where we stress test a Fabric to simulate a disaster.
- What are the use-cases for shifting traffic for Disaster Recovery purposes? Fabric: Performance of applications is degraded Site may be slow or users get errors Validate disaster recovery Plan for disasters (natural/ infrastructure/ code) Expose code bugs and suboptimal configurations via loadtest When the application infrastructure is under stress, easier to expose sub optimal configuration/ code Planned maintenance Intrusive infrastructure maintenance that may cause impact PoP Transport provider maintenance More common in Asia given the large number of submarine cables we utilize Software bugs
- So let’s look at the performance side of the equation. How can shifting traffic improve performance: Fabric: Members use the closest datacenter to them Manage capacity of a datacenter PoP: Steering Users to the best possible PoP gives us significant performance advantage By measuring CDN availability/ performance using RUM (talk about RUM and how it works), we can speed-up page-load-time by 50%
- **** NOTE: Move to excel and remove values *** Average linkedin.com page load time for countries using US Data-centers (measured by Catchpoint – All Major Metro Nodes around the world)
- Average linkedin.com page load time for countries using APAC Data-centres (measured by Catchpoint – Top 10 APAC metro nodes).
- Delta between US and APAC performance. Average is 2.5s
- LinkedIn has done extensive research on the impact site-speed has on user-engagement. From this research we know that slow page load times affects engagement and transaction This in-turn affects our revenue. This is imporant!
- So what does LinkedIn’s traffic architecture look like DNS routes users to the ‘best’ PoP (more on that later) IPVS (IP Virtual Server, a Linux kernel module) announces Unicast and Anycast addresses for www.linkedin.com and terminates TCP connections ATS (Apache Traffic Server) terminates SSL sessions and proxies requests to datacenters Stickyrouting service (talk about in a minute) tells the PoP (specifically ATS) which datacenter/ fabric to send the request to ATS in the datacenter proxies requests to frontend services
- Let’s talk about stickyrouting and Fabric-Shifting
- We run an offline Hadoop job to calculate primary and secondary datacenters for users. Hadoop is a distributed computing mechanism that proceses large datasets We store this data in an in-house key-value store named Espresso Stickyrouting serves information over a RESTFul interface to our Edge-PoP’s
- At LinkedIn, we partition our traffic into various classes so we can control them independently Logged-in vs Logged-out CDN traffic Monitoring traffic Microsites Logged-in users get assigned to a bucket (an arbitrary partition) We then online/ offline buckets in a fabric to manipulate the distribution of traffic between fabrics
- Benefits: Serve the request as close to the user Capacity management - Ensure that data-centers aren’t overloaded Personal data routing – lowers cost to serve
- My team built ’TrafficShift’ app to help automate datacenter routing’ We’ve automated fail-outs of datacenters Also allows us to do automated load-testing of our datacenters
- You can see, LTX1 (Texas datacenter) is failed out
- Example of failing out of East Coast Datacenter Top graph – Online buckets Bottom graph – Distribution of traffic
- Automation to validate DR Tell the engine which datacenter to stress, how much traffic, and what time periods and it will execute for us Traffic engine watches our alerting system to ensure we do not negatively impact the member experience
- Let’s talk about how users connect to LinkedIn’s PoP’s
- LinkedIn’s PoP locations Note that PoP in India is red – means it’s offline – talk about that further later
- Sometimes need to fail out for 3rd party issues – remember the red dot on the PoP map. Steer users to the next-best PoP. In this case. India to Singapore Note the slow traffic tail-off in TMU1 – DNS TTL’s not being honored For Anycast traffic, we withdraw the prefix announcement For Unicast, Fail healthchecks that DNS providers use to check if we are serving from that site
- Remember that red dot before. Sometimes by pure necessity, we need to fail out of PoP’s to mitigate impact or potential impact. In this case, move India traffic from India PoP to Singapore This does have an impact on client connect times and also page-load times.
- UAE has 2 ASNs and GeoDNS routes both to India 5384 – That’’s ok 15802 – Not ok
- RUM DNS recognizes optimal PoPs for ASN 15802 Two better paths, Hong Kong and London/ Dublin
- Drop in connect time after the change
- IPv6 – performs up to 40% better We’ve grown from 3% IPv6 traffic in July 2014 to over 12% today
