My last talk for 2017 was at AWS re:Invent, on "How Netflix Tunes EC2 Instances for Performance," an updated version of my [2014] talk. Our team looks after the BaseAMI, kernel tuning, OS performance tools and profilers, and self-service tools like Vector. We help where we can. html [Introducing Nitro]: [link]

Later that year (2014), Anthony Liguori from AWS gave a [re:Invent talk] recommending users switch the clocksource to tsc to improve performance. At least AWS have now included it in their recommendations.

Requirements In a previous blog post, we discussed Delta , a data enrichment and synchronization platform. In our Delta blog post , we also described use cases beyond data synchronization, such as event processing. There are services at Netflix that use RDBMS kind of databases such as MySQL or PostgreSQL via AWS RDS.
