Free Hand Drawing on Google's Map View

-
Recently, I got a chance to work on a project, where we needed to provide an ability to users of an iOS app to draw on Maps. Basically, we decided to go with Google Maps, because of its overall coverage and its popularity. Hence, we used  Google Maps SDK for iOS  and we wanted to implement "Free Hand Drawing on the Google Maps". To do so, I started searching around the internet for some good resources, but weren't able to find any good one that could just be used like Plug and Play. We had to do a lot of handling on our own and hence decided to write a blog post and a sample project just to make it useful for others, so that others in the same path don't struggle much like me.

Is it possible to scale an application to INFINITY?

-
If you’re designing software systems, then read on otherwise just drop off since this might feel abstract for you. In today’s world, there are only 2 kinds of businesses: tech businesses or tech-enabled businesses, any other business that doesn’t fall under these categories would eventually die off, that’s a fundamental fact! What does HIGH availability & INFINITE scaling mean in the first place?   In a non-sensical way, it is to serve everyone on the internet, considering your service is consumed by every single user/device that’s connected to the internet, which in itself is a myth as it never happens with any given service that it gets used by all the devices on this planet, so the capping already happens at multiple layers like country policy, govt policy blocking certain services & so on, but let's just pretend that your services get consumed by all the devices that are connected to the internet, in that case, is it possible to serve your services/APIs to all those dev...
