photo taken by Adrian Cockcroft A year ago I did a talk at re:Invent called Architecture Trends and Topics for 2021 , so I thought it was worth seeing how they played out and updating them for the coming year. There were five trends and topics for 2021, Serverless First, Chaos Engineering, Wardley Mapping, Huge Hardware, Sustainability.

Defining high availability In general terms, high availability refers to the continuous operation of a system with little to no interruption to end users in the event of hardware or software failures, power outages, or other disruptions. If a primary server fails, a backup server can take over and continue to serve requests.

Introduction Memory systems are evolving into heterogeneous and composable architectures. There are three common mechanisms to access remote memory: modifying applications, modifying virtual memory, and hardware-level cache coherence support. About CXL hardware availability with academia. Using emulation (e.g.

APU: Accelerated Processing Unit is the AMD’s Fusion architecture that integrates both CPU and GPU on the same die. They introduced the architecture of coarse grain reconfigurable array (CGRA) for statically scheduled data flow computing in HOTCHIPS’17 and its software stack of compiler and linker in ICCAD’17.

The following chart breaks down features in three main areas: training and auditing, serving and deployment, and data management, across six systems. Finally, an analysis of ML research directions reveals the following arc through time: systems for training, systems for scoring, AutoML, and then responsible AI.

Both concepts are virtually omnipresent and at the top of most buzzword rankings. And thirdly, an "algorithmic revolution" has taken place, meaning it is now possible to train trillions of algorithms simultaneously, making the whole machine learning process much faster.

I became the Sun UK local specialist in performance and hardware, and as Sun transitioned from a desktop workstation company to sell high end multiprocessor servers I was helping customers find and fix scalability problems. We had specializations in hardware, operating systems, databases, graphics, etc.
