Hardware virtualization for cloud computing has come a long way, improving performance using technologies such as VT-x, SR-IOV, VT-d, NVMe, and APICv. At Netflix, we've been using these technologies as they've been made available for instance types in the AWS EC2 cloud. I'd expect between 0.1% small (thanks @cperciva ). ## 3.

In my role as DevOps and Autonomous Cloud Activist at Dynatrace, I get to talk to a lot of organizations and teams, and advise them on how to speed up delivery while also increasing the delivery in order to minimize the impact on operations. Thanks to Session Replay you can even see the full user journey in a 4k video like replay.

So right from the beginning, I’m happy to spend some time getting back up to speed and developing some of my ideas around new hardware capabilities. Amongst other things, HPC is becoming more cloud centric, and blending with both quantum computing, and AI/ML.

We are standing on the eve of the 5G era… 5G, as a monumental shift in cellular communication technology, holds tremendous potential for spurring innovations across many vertical industries, with its promised multi-Gbps speed, sub-10 ms low latency, and massive connectivity. What about UHD video? energy consumption).

It can be hard to visualize the huge network of hardware that allows you to send a request for a page to a server and then receive a response back. I find it slightly reassuring that, despite there being many websites with very low speeds and high emissions, most of the results are clustered in the bottom right of the chart.

Even with cloud-based foundation models like GPT-4, which eliminate the need to develop your own model or provide your own infrastructure, fine-tuning a model for any particular use case is still a major undertaking. This is an area where cloud providers already bear much of the burden, and will continue to bear it in the future.

We quickly figured that the market was quite crowded with Blazemeter spearheading the “JMeter in the cloud” offer. And at the same time, we also created a version of OctoPerf that you can install entirely on your premises because a lot of companies are not ready/willing to move all their business in the cloud.

Hardware Optimizers” want to get the maximum utilization out of hardware. These systems were designed to have a lifetime of half a decade or more, and rapidly changing hardware meant that the initial deployment had to be sized for 5-7 years out.
