More control: While performing on-premise testing, organizations have more control over configurations, setup, hardware, and software. The security and data storage infrastructure has to meet certain security compliances and standards; only then, the infrastructure is good to go for testing. All of these require a lot of capital.

Pre-publication gates were valuable when better answers weren't available, but commentators should update their priors to account for hardware and software progress of the past 13 years. The idea that preventing browser innovation is pro-user is particularly risible, leading to entirely avoidable catch-22 scenarios for developers and users.

At USENIX SREcon22 APAC I gave the opening keynote on the future of computer performance, rounding up the latest developments and making predictions of where I see things heading. This talk originated from my updates to Systems Performance 2nd Edition , and this was the first time I've given this talk in person!

It takes you through the thinking processes and engineering practices behind the design of a key part of the control plane for AWS Elastic Block Storage (EBS): the Physalia database that stores configuration information. Reminds me of one of the design goals of a certain framework in the enterprise application development space ;) ).

Developers also suffer higher costs and reduced opportunities to escape Google, Facebook, and Apple's walled gardens. Web engineers frequently refer to browsers as "User Agents", a nod to their unique role as interpreters of developer intent that give users the final say over how the web is experienced.

Today, I am very proud to be a part of the Amazon Web Services team as we truly make HPC available as an on-demand commodity for every developer to use. Additionally, many high-end HPC applications take advantage of knowing their in-house hardware platforms to achieve major speedup by exploiting the specific processor architecture.

A then-representative $200USD device had 4-8 slow (in-order, low-cache) cores, ~2GiB of RAM, and relatively slow MLC NAND flash storage. Meanwhile, developer behaviour offers little hope: Median mobile JavaScript payloads have only grown since 2016, now hovering above 400KiB of script transferred, or nearly 2.5MiB of uncompressed JS.

Often it is hidden from the consumer’s eye as it empowers applications rather than being the end game but analytics is becoming more prevalent. In the past analytics within an organization was the pinnacle of old style IT: a centralized data warehouse running on specialized hardware. Cloud enables self-service analytics.

With Amazon DynamoDB, developers scaling cloud-based applications can start small with just the capacity they need and then increase the request capacity of a given table as their app grows in popularity.
