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. Ford, et al., “TCP

This Region will consist of three Availability Zones at launch, and it will provide even lower latency to users across the Middle East. I'm also excited to announce today that we are launching an AWS Edge Network Location in the United Arab Emirates (UAE) in the first quarter of 2018.

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.

Because they lean on the system-provided WebView component, they do not need to pay the expense of a heavier app download to support rendering HTML, running JavaScript, decoding images, or loading network resources. From at least 2012, Apple has deigned to allow "competing browsers" in its App Store. Heaven forfend! ??.

Likewise, object access paths must be heavily multi-threaded and avoid lock contention to minimize access latency and maximize throughput. Also, load-balancing after membership changes must be both multi-threaded and pipelined to drive the network at maximum bandwidth. Please retry later.

This is in addition to the existing optimizations of routing viewers to the edge location with lowest latency for that user, and also persistent connections with the clients.

DynamoDB has come a long way in the 5 years since we announced its availability in January 2012. These high-throughput, low-latency requirements need caching, not as a consideration, but as a best practice. "We are using DAX to scale our reads across our network of services.

With these goals in mind, In January, 2012 we launched Amazon DynamoDB , our cloud-based NoSQL database service designed from the ground up to support extreme scale, with the security, availability, performance and manageability needed to run mission-critical workloads. Manageable – The service would need to be easy to manage and operate.
