Hardware virtualization for cloud computing has come a long way, improving performance using technologies such as VT-x, SR-IOV, VT-d, NVMe, and APICv. At Netflix, we've been using these technologies as they've been made available for instance types in the AWS EC2 cloud. I'd expect between 0.1% small (thanks @cperciva ). ## 3.

SQL Server According to Bob
SEPTEMBER 26, 2016
When we released Always On Availability Groups in SQL Server 2012 as a new and powerful way to achieve high availability, hardware environments included NUMA machines with low-end multi-core processors and SATA and SAN drives for storage (some SSDs). As we moved towards SQL Server 2014, the pace of hardware accelerated.

If you have been paying attention to the technology press over the past 12-18 months, you may have noticed a rather large number of negative stories about Intel's processor business. This made it easier for database professionals to make the case for a hardware upgrade, and made the typical upgrade more worthwhile.

The cheapest (high volume) Androids perform like 2012/2013 iPhones, respectively. Hardware Past As Performance Prologue. Regardless, the overall story for hardware progress remains grim, particularly when we recall how long device replacement cycles are: Tap for a larger version. Mind The Gap. Tap for a larger version.
SQL Server According to Bob

My development collogues and I are starting a regular blog series, outlining the vast range of scalability improvements, allowing SQL Server 2016 to run across a wide array of hardware configurations, faster and better than previous releases of SQL Server. SQL 2016 – It Just Runs Faster: In-Memory Optimized Database Worker Pool.
