Amazon EC2 Cluster GPU Instances - All Things Distributed

All Things Distributed

For example, the most fundamental abstraction trade-off has always been latency versus throughput. These trade-offs have even impacted the way the lowest level building blocks in our computer architectures have been designed. The throughput of this pipeline is more important than the latency of the individual operations.

What is Serverless Architecture?

Whether you choose Azure Functions or AWS Lambda, you cannot easily switch to another. Performance - Serverless Functions that are used less frequently may suffer from warmup response latency, where the infrastructure needs some time to deploy the function. Amazon: AWS Lambda. On Public Clouds: Microsoft: Azure Functions.

A 5G future

O'Reilly

For applications like communication between AVs, latency–how long it takes to get a response–is more likely to be a bigger limitation than raw bandwidth, and is subject to limits imposed by physics. There are impressive estimates for latency for 5G, but reality has a tendency to be harsh on such predictions.

O’Reilly serverless survey 2019: Concerns, what works, and what to expect

O'Reilly

Given that Amazon’s AWS Lambda functions are only five years old this November, anyone with more than three years of experience is a very early adopter. Testing is more complex and labor intensive for serverless architectures, with more scenarios to address and different types of dependencies (e.g., latency, startup, mocking, etc.)

Revisiting “Serverless Architectures”

The Symphonia

I also rewrote the section on Startup Latency since Cold Starts are one of the big “FUD” areas of Serverless. and products like AWS Fargate have made this distinction murkier still. Finally in this first overall section it was good to be able to talk about AWS SAM and SAR?—?“Serverless Because of course it did.
