Nice post on Medium on How PAPER Magazine’s web engineers scaled Kim Kardashian’s back-end. Yes it's safe for work.
It's a fairly technical description of what systems they set up to enable a site that normally handles "a couple million people per month " to be able to cope with something that will generate "at least 100 million page views". Their IT guy had 5 days notice to make this happen.
