Oversee.net Starts Fresh Technology Blog

Blog chronicles engineering challenges of sizable online networks.

What’s it like building technology for a business that sees over 300 million unique visitors each month? A fresh blog will help shed some light.

Oversee.net’s engineering team has just started a fresh blog called Regularly Expressed.

In one of the first blog posts, Oversee.net Director of Technology and Program Management for Monetization Terrence Lui discusses the traffic the firm deals with:

“…Oversee.net manages one of the biggest networks on the internet. In any given month, Oversee.net sees over 300 million unique users. It processes in excess of 2.5 billion events. It has over 10 million domains under management. And since it is a global firm, Oversee.net’s network is operational 24/7/365. These are big numbers. Since of this, we have had to develop innovative solutions to reach this scale.”

The goal of the blog is to reach out to clients and other firms facing similar data challenges to those of Oversee.net.

If the firm has built customized systems for handling lots of data, it ought to consider commercializing them by licensing the technology to ISVs. There’s money to be made.
