Alan Turing needs money and decides to sell lottery tickets. As demand grows, he hires others to help. To improve efficiency, Turing has the resellers wait in a line for tickets and later prints batches of tickets for them in advance so they don't have to keep returning to him. The final system has Turing as the single source of true information and data orchestrator, with pre-generated tickets, multiple resellers acting as data processors, and a job queue to handle customers in a first-in, first-out order for horizontal load balancing.
