The idea CFS operates by very frequently (every few microseconds) applying a set of heuristics which encapsulate a general concept of best practices around CPU hardware use. We’re using cvxpy as a nice generic symbolic front-end to represent the problem which can then be fed into various open-source or proprietary MIP solver backends.

Application developers commonly leverage open-source software when building containerized applications. In fact, the market research firm Forrester says that the average container image is comprised of 70% open-source software.[1] 1] And unfortunately, open-source software is often fraught with security vulnerabilities.

In this blog post, we will discuss the best practices on the MongoDB ecosystem applied at the Operating System (OS) and MongoDB levels. We’ll also go over some best practices for MongoDB security as well as MongoDB data modeling. These “ulimits” prevent single users from using too many system resources.

It is best practice to have an odd number of replica set members to maintain voting quorum. To make this process work more efficiently and ensure a smooth failover, it is important to have the same hardware configuration on all the nodes of the replica set. A replica set can currently have up to 50 nodes.
