USENIX LISA2021 Computing Performance: On the Horizon

Brendan Gregg

AWS Graviton2); for memory with the arrival of DDR5 and High Bandwidth Memory (HBM) on-processor; for storage including new uses for 3D Xpoint as a 3D NAND accelerator; for networking with the rise of QUIC and eXpress Data Path (XDP); and so on. I also wrote about these topics in detail for my recent [Systems Performance 2nd Edition] book.
