Excellent, well written article. The key take away seems to be that instead of an temporary event stream log, since the number of news articles (and associated assets) is finite and cannot explode, they store all the "logs" forever (I'm using the term log as is defined in the article, as a unit of a time-ordered data structure).
I wonder if NYT can help other news websites by making their code open source? I'm a huge fan of NYT and their jump to digital has just been amazing. However, I would also like my local newspaper (which covers more regional news) to be able to serve quality digital content.
