Redis vs Memcached in 2024

Scalegrid

Key Takeaways Redis offers complex data structures and additional features for versatile data handling, while Memcached excels in simplicity with a fast, multi-threaded architecture for basic caching needs. Introduction Caching serves a dual purpose in web development – speeding up client requests and reducing server load.

Supercomputing Predictions: Custom CPUs, CXL3.0, and Petalith Architectures

Adrian Cockcroft

Here’s some predictions I’m making: Jack Dongarra’s efforts to highlight the low efficiency of the HPCG benchmark as an issue will influence the next generation of supercomputer architectures to optimize for sparse matrix computations. Next generation architectures will use CXL3.0 petaflops, which is 0.8% of peak capacity.

Five Data-Loading Patterns To Improve Frontend Performance

Smashing Magazine

On your first try, you can use it as a benchmark for optimizations later. Active Memory Caching. When you want to get data that you already had quickly, you need to do cachingcaching stores data that a user recently retrieved. Caching partially stores your data and is not used as permanent storage.

From Heavy Metal to Irrational Exuberance

ACM Sigarch

The focus of most published research in architecture is on applications implemented in high-performance, “ close-to-the-metal” languages essentially developed before computers got fast. I suggest it’s long past time to move beyond C and SPEC benchmarks and our exclusive focus on “metal” languages.

The Surprising Effectiveness of Non-Overlapping, Sensitivity-Based Performance Models

John McCalpin

This includes all architectures, all compilers, all operating systems, and all system configurations. To show that I can criticize my own work as well, here I show that sustained memory bandwidth (using an approximation to the STREAM Benchmark ) is also inadequate as a single figure of metric. (It

Egnyte Architecture: Lessons learned in building and scaling a multi petabyte content platform

High Scalability

Over time, costs for S3 and GCS became reasonable and with Egnyte’s storage plugin architecture, our customers can now bring in any storage backend of their choice. To add elasticity, reliability and durability, these data centers are connected to Google Cloud platform using high speed, secure Google Interconnect network.

The Performance Inequality Gap, 2021

Alex Russell

A then-representative $200USD device had 4-8 slow (in-order, low-cache) cores, ~2GiB of RAM, and relatively slow MLC NAND flash storage. Using a global ASP as a benchmark can further mislead thanks to the distorting effect of ultra-high-end prices rising while shipment volumes stagnate. The Moto G4 , for example. How bad is it?
