Server scalability explained by a web-comic

Update

On request of the guys of Not Invented Here I have adjusted this post to merely contain 1 actual image of the entire sequence rather than the entire sequence. They are right, the comic should be read where it comes from, they need to eat as well! 🙂 No hard feelings, sorry for the inconvenience of not having the full set in one go though. I understand that was very much appreciated.

A short intermezzo in which I do not write much sensible. I felt the need to collect this set of comics and share them with an audience who might not yet know it.

I love what “Not invented here” is doing with their latest set of explanations of scalability according to Owen.

Quite often I get to explain hard-to-explain stuff to people, like account managers. project managers etc. who are technically not always the strongest people and may not really grasp the subject of scalability for example. I believe that, with it’s humor this comic does make a clear point… Up to you to decide what you want this point to be.
