How We Run Terraform At Scale
https://benchling.engineering/how-we-run-terraform-at-scale-da7bb75dc394
Managing over 165k cloud resources across hundreds of workspaces could seem daunting. But for us, it’s just another day at Benchling. Here’s how we do it.
We currently have:
- 165k cloud resources under management
- 625 Terraform workspaces
- 38 AWS accounts
- 170 engineers (40 of whom are infra specialists)
We perform:
- 225 infrastructure releases daily (terraform apply operations)
- 723 plans daily (terraform plan operations)
We’ve been successfully operating Benchling’s infrastructure release system for the past two years (spoiler, it’s Terraform Cloud), over which time we’ve doubled our infrastructure footprint with minimal additional release overhead.

Things that go wrong with disk IO
https://notes.eatonphil.com/2025-03-27-things-that-go-wrong-with-disk-io.html
There are a few interesting scenarios to keep in mind when writing applications (not just databases!) that read and write files, particularly in transactional contexts where you actually care about the integrity of the data and when you are editing data in place (versus copy-on-write for example).
