There were five trends and topics for 2021, Serverless First, Chaos Engineering, Wardley Mapping, Huge Hardware, Sustainability. The need for systems to be resilient is still increasing, and chaos engineering tools and techniques are developing as a key way to validate that resilience is working as designed.

ML learning systems combine the characteristics of software, e.g. the need for CI/CD pipelines, and of data, e.g. the need to track lineage. Compared to web-scale platform use of ML, enterprise applications tend to be built by smaller teams with deeper domain expertise, but less deep algorithmic or systems expertise.

The motivation is not that inference will perform better inside the database, but that the database is the best place to take advantage of enterprise features (transactions, security, auditing, HA, and so on). Raven is the system that Microsoft built to explore this question, and answer it with a resounding yes.

Last time around we looked at the DeathStarBench suite of microservices-based benchmark applications and learned that microservices systems can be especially latency sensitive, and that hotspots can propagate through a microservices architecture in interesting ways. When available, it can use hardware level performance counters.

After 20 years of neck-in-neck competition, often starting from common code lineages, there just isn't that much left to wring out of the system. Consistent improvement is the name of the game, and it can still have positive impacts, particularly as users lean on the system more heavily over time. Media Session API. Background Sync.

For example, training on more data means more accurate models. Last re:Invent, to make the problem of authoring, training, and hosting ML models easier, faster, and more reliable, we launched Amazon SageMaker. Machine learning models are usually trained tens or hundreds of times. In machine learning, more is usually more.

Choosing 420 subsampling, over the original 444 format, halves the number of samples (counting across all 3 color planes) that need to be encoded while relying on the fact that the human visual system is more sensitive to luma than chroma. There is a potential benefit in reusing the hardware in place for video compression/decompression.
