An additional implication of a lenient sampling policy is the need for scalable stream processing and storage infrastructure fleets to handle increased data volume. The next challenge was to stream large amounts of traces via a scalable data processing platform. Mantis is our go-to platform for processing operational data at Netflix.

Regardless of whether the computing platform to be evaluated is on-prem, containerized, virtualized, or in the cloud, it is crucial to consider several essential factors. There are many times we get asked why some cloud instance performed poorly for their database application and almost always turned out to be some configuration error.

What is workload in cloud computing? Simply put, it’s the set of computational tasks that cloud systems perform, such as hosting databases, enabling collaboration tools, or running compute-intensive algorithms. The environments, which were previously isolated, are now working seamlessly under central control.

Now that Database-as-a-service (DBaaS) is in high demand, there are multiple questions regarding AWS services that cannot always be answered easily: When should I use Aurora and when should I use RDS MySQL ? These may be performance, high availability, operational cost, management, capacity planning, scalability, security, monitoring, etc.

In addition, such custom systems could only be benchmarked once they were deployed, so by the time multiple layers of management had each added a 50% safety margin to the initial SWAG , it was not unusual to see them running at 10% of capacity (but 150% of the lucky hardware salesman’s annual quota).

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.
