on Myths and Legends of High Performance Computing  — it’s a somewhat light-hearted look at some of the same issues by the leader of the team that built the Fugaku system I mention below. Next generation architectures will use CXL3.0 HPCG is led by Japan’s RIKEN Fugaku system at 16 petaflops, which is 3% of it’s peak capacity.

Site reliability engineering (SRE) is the practice of applying software engineering principles to operations and infrastructure processes to help organizations create highly reliable and scalable software systems. SRE applies DevOps principles to developing systems and software that help increase site reliability and performance.

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. Why are developers using RInK systems as part of their design? We’ve seen similar high marshalling overheads in big data systems too.)

Note that the main developer of HammerDB is Intel employee (#IAMINTEL) however HammerDB is a personal open source project and HammerDB has no optimization whatsoever for a database running on any particular architecture. So to test I took a system with Skylake CPUs and all storage on a P4800X SSD. Copyright (C) 2003-2018 Steve Shaw.

As with the previous guides as an Intel employee (#IAMINTEL) the examples are taken from a MySQL 8 on Linux on Intel system and the approach is the same for whatever system you are testing although some of the settings you see may be different.
