The layers of platforms start at the bottom with hardware choices such as which CPU architectures and vendors you want to use. The next layer is operating system platforms, what flavor of Linux, what version of Windows etc. Above that there’s a deployment platform such as Kubernetes or AWS Lambda.

In order to overcome these issues, the concept of paging and segmentation was introduced, where physical address space and virtual address space were designed. Here, virtual(logical) to physical address translation is much easier as segment tables store adequate information. At present, this is in the development phase.

In the world of application development, there are two acronyms professionals must be familiar with to be successful: RUM and APM. Developers use APM as part of a broader strategy to ensure certain goals are met while RUM is a more narrow tool to support that strategy. What is real user monitoring (RUM)? Basic server metrics.

Firecracker is the virtual machine monitor (VMM) that powers AWS Lambda and AWS Fargate, and has been used in production at AWS since 2018. The traditional view is that there is a choice between virtualization with strong security and high overhead, and container technologies with weaker security and minimal overhead.

Container environments enable enterprises to quickly deploy and develop cloud-native applications that can run anywhere. These containers are software packages that include all the relevant dependencies needed to run software on any system. Instead, enterprises manage individual containers on virtual machines (VMs).
