Hello,
I'm currently interested on knowing how the wikipedia scale from the technology perspective: the wikipedia infrastructure, its servers and application. Are there any wikimania talks that I could refer to? Paper and video would be good.
Regards,

Which is completely useless for any kind of high-level information, in particular [[Server roles]] which is dead and has no replacement and https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikimedia_servers is outdated. But you might dig http://wikitech.wikimedia.org/view/Presentations , it's also possible that some Wikimania presentations have been added already.
