Key Takeaways Distributed storage systems benefit organizations by enhancing data availability, fault tolerance, and system scalability, leading to cost savings from reduced hardware needs, energy consumption, and personnel. Variations within these storage systems are called distributed file systems.

Log monitoring, log analysis, and log analytics are more important than ever as organizations adopt more cloud-native technologies, containers, and microservices-based architectures. A log is a detailed, timestamped record of an event generated by an operating system, computing environment, application, server, or network device.

First, a bit of operating-system design context. Ideally the CPU goes to sleep when Sleep(1) is called, in order to save power, so how does the operating system (OS) wake your thread if the CPU is sleeping? The answer is hardware interrupts. Timer interrupts and their raison d’être.

When a program leaves the memory, space becomes available; however, the OS may or may not be able to allocate vacant memory space to another program or process as it has some issues.
