At the start of November I was privileged to attend HPTS (the High Performance Transaction Systems) conference in Asilomar. On the last morning of the conference Daniel Bittman presented some of the work being done in the context of the Twizzler OS project to explore new programming models for NVM. Early performance results.

on Myths and Legends of High Performance Computing  — it’s a somewhat light-hearted look at some of the same issues by the leader of the team that built the Fugaku system I mention below. The emergence of chiplet technology also allows higher performance and integration without having to design every chip from scratch.

There were so many interesting papers at the conference this year though that I haven’t been able to cover nearly as many as I would like. On one of the themes that captures my imagination, how changing hardware platform influence system design: Rethinking database high availability with RDMA networks. Do we want that?

Improving The Performance Of Wix Websites written by Dan Shappir. So we’re throwing a ton of client-side JS at people, and that introduces a ton of agility and performance issues. And so what I think is awesome about Jamstack if done a certain way, is it can dramatically improve the performance of the things that you’re building.
