Scalable Web Project Architecture

Question

Where do you get information on how to create a scalable, high-performance web application? I mean architecture, best practices. regardless of platform and language: .net, php, java ... Did you get your "epic failure" in your project, and then reorganized the system after a few nights or got information from the Internet?

Are there any communities in which I could share my experience and get a response?

Yes, I know that each project is individual.

Answer 1

It is not easy to answer this question. Language and platform are secondary when we think about scalability.

"Scalability is actually a property of the system, not the individual level of that system. Even with the best, sexiest, most automatic scaling layer, you can easily write code that just doesn't scale. - glyph"

Be that as it may, you can immerse yourself in a very good set of resources on this issue in
