It's an exciting time for developments in computer performance, not just for the BPF technology (which I often [write about]) but also for processors with 3D stacking and cloud vendor CPUs (e.g., Ford, et al., “TCP on Upcoming Sapphire Rapids CPUs,” [link] Oct 2020 - [Liu 20] Linda Liu, “Samsung QVO vs EVO vs PRO: What’s the Difference?

My personal opinion is that I don't see a widespread need for more capacity given horizontal scaling and servers that can already exceed 1 Tbyte of DRAM; bandwidth is also helpful, but I'd be concerned about the increased latency for adding a hop to more memory. It's an important vendor-neutral space to share the latest in technology.

The new region will give Hong Kong-based businesses, government organizations, non-profits, and global companies with customers in Hong Kong, the ability to leverage AWS technologies from data centers in Hong Kong. This enables customers to serve content to their end users with low latency, giving them the best application experience.

To increase capacity, hard disk drive (HDD) vendors are introducing Shingled Magnetic Recording (SMR) technology. In 2008, with the emergence of Btrfs, a new implementation was built taking advantage of Btrfs’ transactions, deduplication, checksums, and compression. The first implementation (c. Taking it to the next level.

A brief history of IPC at Netflix Netflix was early to the cloud, particularly for large-scale companies: we began the migration in 2008, and by 2010, Netflix streaming was fully run on AWS. These two technologies, alongside a host of other resiliency and chaos tools, made a massive difference: our reliability improved measurably as a result.
