Last week we looked at a function shipping solution to the problem; Cloudburst uses the more common data shipping to bring data to caches next to function runtimes (though you could also make a case that the scheduling algorithm placing function execution in locations where the data is cached a flavour of function-shipping too).

Data warehouses offer a single storage repository for structured data and provide a source of truth for organizations. Unlike data warehouses, however, data is not transformed before landing in storage. A data lakehouse provides a cost-effective storage layer for both structured and unstructured data.

Cons of logical backups As it reads all data, it can be slow and will require disk reads too for databases that are larger than the RAM available for the WT cache—the WT cache pressure increases, which slows down the performance. Especially if going into or out of storage types that may throttle bandwidth/network traffic.

That means multiple data indirections mean multiple cache misses. Mark LaPedus : MRAM, a next-generation memory type, is being touted as a replacement for embedded flash and cache applications. Cliff Click : The JVM is very good at eliminating the cost of code abstraction, but not the cost of data abstraction. They are very expensive.

Today, I'm excited to announce the general availability of Amazon DynamoDB Accelerator (DAX) , a fully managed, highly available, in-memory cache that can speed up DynamoDB response times from milliseconds to microseconds, even at millions of requests per second. DynamoDB was the first service at AWS to use SSD storage.

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.

In fact, this is been proven by our customers as Amazon Aurora remains the fastest growing service in AWS history. Use cases such as gaming, ad tech, and IoT lend themselves particularly well to the key-value data model where the access patterns require low-latency Gets/Puts for known key values. The opposite is true.

Three years ago, as part of our AWS Fast Data journey we introduced Amazon ElastiCache for Redis , a fully managed in-memory data store that operates at sub-millisecond latency. While caching continues to be a dominant use of ElastiCache for Redis, we see customers increasingly use it as an in-memory NoSQL database.

The CFQ works well for many general use cases but lacks latency guarantees. The deadline excels at latency-sensitive use cases ( like databases ), and noop is closer to no schedule at all. Make sure the drives are mounted with noatime and also if the drives are behind a RAID controller with appropriate battery-backed cache.

Mounting object storage in Netflix’s media processing platform By Barak Alon (on behalf of Netflix’s Media Cloud Engineering team) MezzFS (short for “Mezzanine File System”) is a tool we’ve developed at Netflix that mounts cloud objects as local files via FUSE. Our object storage service splits objects into many parts and stores them in S3.

Estimated Input Latency tells us if we are hitting that threshold, and ideally, it should be below 50ms. Designed for the modern web, it responds to actual congestion, rather than packet loss like TCP does, it is significantly faster , with higher throughput and lower latency — and the algorithm works differently.
