A Cassandra database cluster had switched to Ubuntu and noticed write latency increased by over 30%. top(1) showed that only the Cassandra database was consuming CPU. As a Xen guest, this profile was gathered using perf(1) and the kernel's software cpu-clock soft interrupts, not the hardware NMI. But I'm not completely sure.

Infinitely scalable machine learning with Amazon SageMaker

All Things Distributed

Streaming algorithms also natively consume ephemeral data sources such as Amazon Kinesis streams, pipes, database query results, and almost any other data source. To seamlessly switch between CPU and GPU machines, we use Apache MXNet to interface with the underlying hardware. Post-training model tuning and rich states.
