How to build a distributed web application platform?

I want to build my own decentralized application platform to build and deploy web applications easily, which is like Google's App Engine, on multiple web servers. What language-independent steps 开发者_运维知识库should I take to build such infrastructure?

Thanks.

Why not just use AppScale? It's open-source and AppEngine compatible.

I started using AppScale when i started my distributed web development journey.It has really helped me understand so my recommendation is to start there.

Go check out TyphoonAE. I think it provides an excellent "model" for how you could build your own stack / platform. The "main" components of the stack are:

• NGINX: Webserver frontent
• memcached: Memcache service
• RabbitMQ: Task queue
• ejabberd: Messaging
• MongoDB: database

In your own stack you could swap out components quite easily, based on your preferences and needs.
