The Netflix video processing pipeline went live with the launch of our streaming service in 2007. This architecture shift greatly reduced the processing latency and increased system resiliency. Reloaded was well-architected, providing good stability, scalability, and a reasonable level of flexibility.

It supports both high throughput services that consume hundreds of thousands of CPUs at a time, and latency-sensitive workloads where humans are waiting for the results of a computation. The first generation of this system went live with the streaming launch in 2007.

In 2007, we opened our first AWS Region in Ireland and since then have opened additional regions, in Germany and the UK, with France still to come. After the launch of the AWS EU (Stockholm) Region, there will be 13 Availability Zones in Europe for customers to build flexible, scalable, secure, and highly available applications.

It is used for capacity planning and scalability analysis. My tool does this using /proc/PID/clear_refs and the Referenced value from /proc/PID/smaps, which were added in 2007 by David Rientjes (thanks). Your app may have populated 100 Gbytes of main memory, but only uses 50 Mbytes each second to do its job. Consider these overheads.
