File systems unfit as distributed storage backends: lessons from 10 years of Ceph evolution Aghayev et al., In this case, the assumption that a distributed storage backend should clearly be layered on top of a local file system. A distributed file system provides a unified view over aggregated storage from multiple physical machines.

This enables customers to serve content to their end users with low latency, giving them the best application experience. In 2008, AWS opened a point of presence (PoP) in Hong Kong to enable customers to serve content to their end users with low latency. Since then, AWS has added two more PoPs in Hong Kong, the latest in 2016.

SSRS 2008 brought that component into the reporting service module. Unlike the system database tempdb, ReportServerTempDB is not recreated at startup. Disk latency for ReportServer and ReportServerTempDB are very important. DBAs are familiar with restoring databases, rather than hunting for a script to recreate the database.

During the 90s, we saw two content management systems for static sites — Microsoft FrontPage in 1996 and Macromedia Dreamweaver in 1997. These desktop applications incremented the tooling an inch closer to the modern Jamstack content management systems of today. Maintaining layouts became a particular pain point for static sites.

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).
