Five-nines availability: Always-on infrastructure delivers system availability during the holidays’ peak loads

Dynatrace

Five-nines availability: The ultimate benchmark of system availability. For organizations running their own on-premises infrastructure, these costs can be prohibitive. With so many variables in modern application delivery, organizations need an always-on infrastructure to deliver continuous system availability, even under peak loads.

Seer: leveraging big data to navigate the complexity of performance debugging in cloud microservices

The Morning Paper

Last time around we looked at the DeathStarBench suite of microservices-based benchmark applications and learned that microservices systems can be especially latency sensitive, and that hotspots can propagate through a microservices architecture in interesting ways. When available, it can use hardware level performance counters.

DBaaS vs Self-Managed Cloud Databases

Scalegrid

Traditional self-managed ones give organizations full control over their database infrastructure, such as picking the software and scaling it up. Thereby streamlining their database infrastructure without any major complications or stress accompanying doing the same effectively resulting in fewer worries when setting out sail onboard!

The Return of the Frame Pointers

Brendan Gregg

It was also a virtual machine that lacked low-level hardware profiling capabilities, so I wasn't able to do cycle analysis to confirm that the 10% was entirely frame pointer-based. and we may have been flying close to the edge of hardware cache warmth, where adding a bit more instructions caused a big drop.

10 tips for migrating from monolith to microservices

Dynatrace

Limits of a lift-and-shift approach A traditional lift-and-shift approach, where teams migrate a monolithic application directly onto hardware hosted in the cloud, may seem like the logical first step toward application transformation. Use SLAs, SLOs, and SLIs as performance benchmarks for newly migrated microservices.
