In this sixth installment of Monetization Monthly, we take a deep dive into architecture of systems to power multi-sided marketplaces, performance and algorithm considerations, some approaches to scalability. We will talk about how these systems have been architected, dealing with high demand, network effects and their impact. We will also talk about that lead to better efficiencies.
