In 2018, a widespread adaptation of Kubernetes for big data processing is anitcipated. faster access to external storage and data locality (I/O, bandwidth). Using default scheduler's node affinity feature you can ensure that certain pods only schedule on nodes with specialized hardware like GPU, memory-optimised, I/O optimised etc.

As is also the case this limitation is at the database level (especially the storage engine) rather than the hardware level. InnoDB is the storage engine that will deliver the best OLTP throughput and should be chosen for this test. . driver: intel_pstate CPUs which run at the same hardware frequency: 0 .

A then-representative $200USD device had 4-8 slow (in-order, low-cache) cores, ~2GiB of RAM, and relatively slow MLC NAND flash storage. India became a 4G-centric market sometime in 2018. Hardware Past As Performance Prologue. The Moto G4 , for example. 5G looks set to continue a bumpy rollout for the next half-decade.
