Helping VFX studios pave a path to the cloud

The Netflix TechBlog

But it’s not easy: to pull this off, VFX studios need to build and operate serious technical infrastructure (compute, storage, networking, and software licensing), otherwise known as a “ render farm.” Many shows have needs that exceed 100,000 frames, so aggregate rendering time can impact the timely delivery of a show on Netflix.

Predictive CPU isolation of containers at Netflix

The Netflix TechBlog

Because microprocessors are so fast, computer architecture design has evolved towards adding various levels of caching between compute units and the main memory, in order to hide the latency of bringing the bits to the brains. This avoids thrashing caches too much for B and evens out the pressure on the L3 caches of the machine.

The Return of the Frame Pointers

Brendan Gregg

Only in extreme circumstances does the cost (in processor time and I-cache footprint) translate to a tangible benefit - circumstances which usually resort to hand-coded assembly anyway. It shouldn't be 10%, unless it's cache effects. And for leaf routines (which never establish a frame), this is a non-issue.

What is a Distributed Storage System

Scalegrid

Key Takeaways Distributed storage systems benefit organizations by enhancing data availability, fault tolerance, and system scalability, leading to cost savings from reduced hardware needs, energy consumption, and personnel. They maintain fault tolerance and redundancy by replicating this information throughout various nodes in the system.
