SEPTEMBER 29, 2020

At Dynatrace we host most of our Dynatrace SaaS clusters for paying customers as well as trial users in the Amazon Web Services (AWS) cloud. Since we moved to AWS in May 2014 we have had an availability of 99.95%! Sydney, we have a disk write latency problem!

These strange questions came to the fore back in 2014 when Netflix was switching services from CentOS Linux to Ubuntu, and I helped debug several weird performance issues including one I'll describe here. A Cassandra database cluster had switched to Ubuntu and noticed write latency increased by over 30%. How would you _time_ time?

Today, I am very excited to announce our plans to open a new AWS Region in the Nordics! The new region will give Nordic-based businesses, government organisations, non-profits, and global companies with customers in the Nordics, the ability to leverage the AWS technology infrastructure from data centers in Sweden.

Today we are excited to announce latency heatmaps and improved container support for our on-host monitoring solution?—?Vector?—?to Remotely view real-time process scheduler latency and tcp throughput with Vector and eBPF What is Vector? to the broader community. Vector is open source and in use by multiple companies.

This architecture affords Amazon ECS high availability, low latency, and high throughput because the data store is never pessimistically locked. As you can see, the latency remains relatively jitter-free despite large fluctuations in the cluster size. Hailo was founded in 2011 and has been built on AWS since Day 1.

Here's some output from my zfsdist tool, in bcc/BPF, which measures ZFS latency as a histogram on Linux: # zfsdist. Tracing ZFS operation latency. But there's another factor at play: jobs are also migrating from both Solaris and Linux to cloud jobs instead, specifically AWS. Hit Ctrl-C to end. ^C
