USENIX SREcon APAC 2022: Computing Performance: What's on the Horizon

Brendan Gregg

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

Expanding the Cloud – An AWS Region is coming to Hong Kong

All Things Distributed

As well as AWS Regions, we also have 21 AWS Edge Network Locations in Asia Pacific. This enables customers to serve content to their end users with low latency, giving them the best application experience. In 2013, AWS opened an office in Hong Kong. Since then, AWS has added two more PoPs in Hong Kong, the latest in 2016.

Ciao Milano! – An AWS Region is coming to Italy!

All Things Distributed

This helps support over 50 million searches every month on its networks across Italy. AWS also has a vibrant partner ecosystem in Italy as part of the AWS Partner Network (APN). In 2013, we launched a dedicated program called AWS Activate. We are also focused on supporting start-up companies across Italy.

Byzantine Fault Tolerance

cdemi

On July 5th 1982, Leslie Lamport (initial LaTeX developer, Microsoft Researcher and winner of the 2013 Turing Award), Robert Shostak and Marshall Pease published a paper named The Byzantine Generals' Problem. Because these are real-time systems, their Byzantine fault tolerance solutions must have very low latency.
