Werner Vogels weblog on building scalable and robust distributed systems. Not just for HPC but for mission critical enterprise systems such as OLTP. Cluster Compute Instances can be grouped as cluster using a "cluster placement group" to indicate that these are instances that require low-latency, high bandwidth communication.

Werner Vogels weblog on building scalable and robust distributed systems. As a part of that process, we also realized that there were a number of latency sensitive or location specific use cases like Hadoop, HPC, and testing that would be ideal for Spot. Driving down the cost of Big-Data analytics. All Things Distributed.

Werner Vogels weblog on building scalable and robust distributed systems. There are four main reasons to do so: Performance - For many applications and services, data access latency to end users is important. The new Singapore Region offers customers in APAC lower-latency access to AWS services. All Things Distributed.

It will also give customers another region where they can store their data with the knowledge that it will not leave the EU unless they move it. This enables customers to serve content to their end users with low latency, giving them the best application experience. AWS was crucial to the successful launch of WOW air’s U.S.

Werner Vogels weblog on building scalable and robust distributed systems. For example, the most fundamental abstraction trade-off has always been latency versus throughput. The throughput of this pipeline is more important than the latency of the individual operations. All Things Distributed. Comments ().
