It is limited by the disk space; it can’t expand storage elastically; it chokes if you run few I/O intensive processes or try collaborating with 100 other users. 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.

Energy data can be obtained from power delivery systems in datacenters or from intelligent plugs or power strips. At the instance level, many CPU and system architectures have direct access to power consumption metrics. There are also control plane overheads, shared storage volumes and supporting services to instrument.

Build evolvable systems. Almost from day one, we knew that the software we were building would not be the software that would be running a year later. The expectation was that with each order or two of magnitude, we would need to revisit and revise the architecture to make sure we could address the issues of scale.

In this post, I argue that software and data interoperability, a hallmark of the modern computer ecosystem, is at the core of several widespread security problems. An alternate approach is to tie data and potentially software to specific physical instances of a digital system. Interoperability.

In this benchmark the difference between looking at workload from a SQL commands standpoint vs a row operation standpoint yields the same results, but it is not going to always be the case. Let’s now look at the operating system level. This workload is write intensive by this measure. Not all writes are equal either.

Last week we saw the benefits of rethinking memory and pointer models at the hardware level when it came to object storage and compression ( Zippads ). The protections are hardware implemented and cannot be forged in software. Capability integrity prevents direct in-memory manipulation of architectural capability encodings.
