USENIX LISA2021 Computing Performance: On the Horizon

Brendan Gregg

I summarized these topics and more as a plenary conference talk, including my own predictions (as a senior performance engineer) for the future of computing performance, with a focus on back-end servers. This was a chance to talk about other things I've been working on, such as the present and future of hardware performance.

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.

Kubernetes And Kernel Panics

The Netflix TechBlog

When this happens, usually a k8s cloud-controller provided by the cloud vendor will detect that the actual server, in our case an EC2 Instance, has actually gone away, and will in turn delete the k8s node object. Where Do Lost Nodes Come From? Nodes can go away for any reason, especially in “the cloud”. UDP packet?

Notes on: Married to HTTP/3

Tim Kadlec

HTTP/3 work started in 2012 with Google working on QUIC, adopted by IETF in 2017, RFC’s published in June 2022. No server push! The RSVP problem: HTTP/3 might be blocked on the network or may not be enabled on the server. So the browser will only try HTTP/3 if it’s certain the server supports it.

What is cloud application security?

Dynatrace

If your app runs in a public cloud, such as Amazon Web Services (AWS), Microsoft Azure, or Google Cloud Platform (GCP), the provider secures the infrastructure, while you’re responsible for security measures within applications and configurations. Likewise, attacks on open source libraries have increased.
