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.

Systems researchers are doing an excellent job improving the performance of 5-year old benchmarks, but gradually making it harder to explore innovative machine learning research ideas. Convolutional Capsule primitives can be implemented reasonably efficiently on CPU but problems arise on accelerators (e.g. GPU and TPU).

Understanding DBaaS DBaaS cloud services allow users to use databases without configuring physical hardware and infrastructure or installing software. RDS also simplifies the process of automatic scaling based on workload demand, adding or subtracting replicas to efficiently distribute read requests and reduce costs during low demand.

Over the last two decades, processor designers have extracted significant performance by leveraging architectural solutions and process innovations. The low power dissipation and higher density of CMOS enabled the architectural innovations of the last few decades which led to the single thread improvements seen in the 1990s and early 2000s.

Version7 (Future): Move all compute to the public cloud, carve out more services for impact isolation, dynamic resource pooling to manage pets and cattle efficiently. For permissions data, we have rearchitected that layer many times and recently we wrote a TRIE to cache this efficiently. AWS : Their pace of innovation is admiring.
