AWS today announced a substantial price drop from March 1, 2012 for many of the Amazon EC2, Amazon RDS, and Amazon ElastiCache instances types around the world. We continuously apply all our innovative skills to the design of datacenters, servers, storage, network, etc.

At Netflix, we've been using these technologies as they've been made available for instance types in the AWS EC2 cloud. In this configuration, the AMI and boot is paravirt (PV), the kernel is making hypercalls instead of privileged instructions, and the system is using paravirt network and storage drivers. The AMI and boot are now HVM.

The summary rows for heap tables without indexes are the same in both documents (no changes for SQL Server 2016): An explicit TABLOCK hint is not the only way to meet the requirement for table-level locking. The inputs to this calculation are: The version of SQL Server. The estimated number of rows leading into the Insert operator.

In SQL Server 2012, grouped (vector) aggregation was able to use parallel batch-mode execution, but only for the partial (per-thread) aggregate. SQL Server 2014 added the ability to perform parallel batch-mode grouped aggregation within a single Hash Match Aggregate operator. Columnstore storage. Introduction.

Troy: We love RDS – its reduced our operational workload by a noticeable factor but even more exciting is the benefits around fast recovery enabled by the Multi-Availability Zone capability.

A then-representative $200USD device had 4-8 slow (in-order, low-cache) cores, ~2GiB of RAM, and relatively slow MLC NAND flash storage. The cheapest (high volume) Androids perform like 2012/2013 iPhones, respectively. Modern network performance and availability. low-end Androids have finally caught up to the iPhone 5 from 2012.

For example, the IMDG must be able to efficiently create millions of objects in each server to make use of its huge storage capacity. In a recent customer engagement, the application needed to load 10M objects into each server of the IMDG’s cluster to make full use of high-end servers with 60GB memory capacity.

With the latest ClickHouse version, all of these features are available, but some of them may not perform fast enough. 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.

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. But still, I liked how Moment.js
