The cheapest (high volume) Androids perform like 2012/2013 iPhones, respectively. If those specs sound eerily familiar, it's perhaps because they're identical to 2016's $200USD Moto G4 , all the way down to the 2011-vintage 28nm SoC process node used to fab the chip's anemic, 2012-vintage A53 cores.

Internally DBCC CHECK* uses a page scanning coordinator design (MultiObjectScanner.) SQL Server 2016 changes the internal design to (CheckScanner), applying no lock semantics and a design similar to those used with In-Memory Optimized (Hekaton) objects, allowing DBCC operations to scale far better than previous releases.

Technology systems are difficult to wrangle. Our systems grow in accidental complexity and complication over time. By 2012, Harvard Business Review published an article by Thomas Davenport and D.J. It's a given that we must design a system, including a local software architecture, that actually runs, that is "solid."

The design of the model heavily depends on the problem. This framework resembles the approach suggested in [JK98].

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.

DynamoDB has come a long way in the 5 years since we announced its availability in January 2012. As we said at the time, DynamoDB was a result of 15 years of learning in the area of large scale non-relational databases and cloud services. I've had a chance to interact with many of these customers on the design of their apps.

We designed DynamoDB to operate with at least 99.999% availability. More than a decade ago, Amazon embarked on a mission to build a distributed system that challenged conventional methods of data storage and querying. The original Dynamo paper inspired many database solutions, which are now popularly referred to as NoSQL databases.
