So while scale out has seen the majority of attention in the cloud era, it’s good to remind ourselves periodically just what we really can do on a single box or even a single thread. When used in prevention mode (IPS), this all has to happen inline over incoming traffic to block any traffic with suspicious signatures.

A quick canary test was free of errors and showed lower latency, which is expected given that our standard canary setup routes an equal amount of traffic to both the baseline running on 4xl and the canary on 12xl. What’s worse, average latency degraded by more than 50%, with both CPU and latency patterns becoming more “choppy.”
