However in the Skylake microarchitecture (you can see a list of CPUs here ) the PAUSE instruction changed and in the documentation it says “the latency of the PAUSE instruction in prior generation microarchitectures is about 10 cycles, whereas in Skylake microarchitecture it has been extended to as many as 140 cycles.”

As we saw with the SOAP paper last time out, even with a fixed model variant and hardware there are a lot of different ways to map a training workload over the available hardware. The following figure highlights how just one of these variables, batch size, impacts throughput and latency on ResNet50. The paper is silent on this issue.

Data Pipeline A data pipeline is a software that ingests data from multiple sources, transforms it and finally makes it available to internal or external products. If tuned for performance, there is a good change reliability is compromised - and vice versa. In a nutshell, a data pipeline is a distributed system.

Storage The type of storage and disk used for database servers can have a significant impact on performance and reliability. Cloud Different cloud providers offer a range of instance types and sizes, each with varying amounts of CPU, memory, and storage. Typically a good value is 70%-80% of available memory.

The data warehouse is not designed to serve point requests from microservices with low latency. Therefore, we must efficiently move data from the data warehouse to a global, low-latency and highly-reliable key-value store. As most key-value storage engines support efficiently deleting a namespace (e.g.

If we were to select the most important MySQL setting, if we were given a freshly installed MySQL or Percona Server for MySQL and could only tune a single MySQL variable, which one would it be? MySQL comes pre-configured to be conservative instead of making the most of the resources available in the server. Why is that?
