Every now and then, I like to spend some time on reading articles and papers about developing and administrating database information systems.Today I came across the Lisa conference (Large Installation System Administration) and particularly on the paper On Designing and Deploying Internet-Scale Services where you can read a bunch of important advices on how to develop and administrate a big online platform and many more Also if you have interest you can look at the other participants in the conference Lisa 2007 .
