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.

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.

The new AWS EU (Stockholm) Region will have three Availability Zones and will be ready for customers to use in 2018. As a result, we have opened 42 Availability Zones across 16 AWS Regions worldwide. In 2014 and 2015 respectively, AWS opened offices in Stockholm and Espoo, Finland. That’s 100% faster.

The information it captures is, however, available going back somewhat further, providing a fuller picture of the trend lines of engine completeness.
