Coupled with stateless application servers to execute business logic and a database-like system to provide persistent storage, they form a core component of popular data center service archictectures. A high CPU cost due to marshalling data to/from the RInK store formats to the application data format. Who knew! ;).

For example, the most fundamental abstraction trade-off has always been latency versus throughput. Modern CPUs strongly favor lower latency of operations with clock cycles in the nanoseconds and we have built general purpose software architectures that can exploit these low latencies very well. Where to go from here?

In particular this has been true for applications based on algorithms - often MPI-based - that depend on frequent low-latency communication and/or require significant cross sectional bandwidth.

As a part of that process, we also realized that there were a number of latency sensitive or location specific use cases like Hadoop, HPC, and testing that would be ideal for Spot. To get started using Spot or for more details visit the Amazon EC2 Spot Instance web page, the AWS developer blog , and the EC2 Release Notes. Contact Info.

Route 53 has the business properties that you have come to expect from an AWS service: fully self-service and programmable, with transparent pay-as-you-go pricing and no minimum usage commitments. This achieves very low-latency for queries which is crucial for the overall performance of internet applications. No lock-in. Contact Info.

Achieving strict consistency can come at a cost in update or read latency, and may result in lower throughput. Amazon S3 and Amazon SimpleDB are examples of AWS services that are designed using these high-availability principles using an eventual consistency model. Lowest read latency. Higher read latency. No stale reads.
