The epoch of AWS is the launch of Amazon S3 on March 14, 2006, now almost 10 years ago. Build evolvable systems. But we couldn’t adopt the old style approach of upgrading systems through a maintenance outage, as many businesses around the world are relying on our platform for 24/7 availability. Expect the unexpected.

The presentation discusses a family of simple performance models that I developed over the last 20 years — originally in support of processor and system design at SGI (1996-1999), IBM (1999-2005), and AMD (2006-2008), but more recently in support of system procurements at The Texas Advanced Computing Center (TACC) (2009-present).

Web apps allow you to break the traditional constraints of the desktop and mobile operating systems and provide freedom to experiment with different varieties of software. Introduced in 2006, its popularity peaked around 2013-14 and has been on the decline ever since. Component based design allows code reusability.

On any modern operating system each process gets their own virtual memory address space so that the operating system can isolate processes and protect memory. For the 48-bit address space supported on an x64 operating system: The level-one page table can cover 256 TiB (48 bits) by pointing to 512 different level-two page tables.

Werner Vogels weblog on building scalable and robust distributed systems. Amazon Simple Storage Service (S3) was launched in 2006 as "Storage for the Internet" with the promise to make web-scale computing easier for developers. Under the covers Amazon S3 is a marvel of distributed systems technologies. All Things Distributed.

2006-01-01 ? In a partitioned massively parallel database system, the storage format and sorting algorithm may not be optimized for that operation as we are reading multiple partitions in parallel. ClickHouse is a great massively parallel analytical system. At the same time, it was not originally designed that way.

Most of this article represents an overview of the results published by retailers and researchers who built practical decision making and optimization systems combining abstract economic models with data mining methods. The design of the model heavily depends on the problem. This framework resembles the approach suggested in [JK98].

Between 2002 and 2006, the web (roughly) didn’t add any new features. Instead they built an AppCache style system which didn’t work in all the ways AppCache didn’t work (which they couldn’t have known at the time). Meanwhile IE 6’s momentum assured its place as the boat-anchor-browser. Was that better? Not hardly. It’s time to try.

I said something similar to the above, but with two important differences: I said hardware “threads,” not only hardware “cores” – it was about the amount of hardware parallelism available on a mainstream system. Longer answer follows: Here’s the main part from article, “Design for Manycore Systems” (August 11, 2009).

During the 90s, we saw two content management systems for static sites — Microsoft FrontPage in 1996 and Macromedia Dreamweaver in 1997. Piecing together a website using a WYSIWYG editor and seeing the code it generated was a fascinating and educational experience that sparked an initial interest in web design. More after jump!

To provide some coherence to the music, I decided to use Taylor Swift songs since her discography covers the time span of most papers that I typically read: Her main albums were released in 2006, 2008, 2010, 2012, 2014, 2017, 2019, 2020, and 2022. This choice also inspired me to call my project Swift Papers.
