Virtual consensus in Delos , Balakrishnan et al. Back in 2017 the engineering team at Facebook had a problem. If you think of this a bit like mapping memory addresses to data in memory, then another parallel comes to mind: the virtual address space. We propose the novel abstraction of a virtual shared log (or VirtualLog).

Back on December 5, 2017, Microsoft announced that they were using AMD EPYC 7551 processors in their storage-optimized Lv2-Series virtual machines. I wrote about using CPU-Z to benchmark the Intel Xeon E5-2673 v3 processor in an Azure VM in this article. Figure 1: CPU-Z Benchmark Results for LS16v2. 10 x 1.9TB NVMe SSD.

CLI tools The Cassandra systems were EC2 virtual machine (Xen) instances. Note that Ubuntu also has a frame to show entry into vDSO (virtual dynamic shared object). Over the years, more and more articles have been published about clocksource in virtual machines, and it's now a well-known issue. include <sys/time.h>

The initial reviews and benchmarks for these processors have been very impressive: AMD EPYC 7002 Series Rome Delivers a Knockout. AMD Rome Second Generation EPYC Review: 2x 64-core Benchmarked. TPC-H Benchmark Results with SQL Server 2017. TPC-E Benchmark Results with SQL Server 2017. Lower power usage.

since 2017, and many customers have used it with great success while we collected requirements for the next iteration of our Lambda extension. The virtual CPU is turned off. When we set out to create the new Lambda extension, we benchmarked other dedicated Lambda monitoring solutions that were already on the market.

2017: MongoDB goes public, trading as MDB. Though still not “profitable” by many benchmarks, it’s a lot closer to being so, perhaps in a big way.) (Some might say this marked the beginning of MongoDB’s “cloud push” escalation.) Since then, the stock price has increased more than 600%.
