ScaleOut Software

JULY 21, 2020

By transparently distributing stored objects across a cluster of servers (physical or virtual), it automatically scales performance for fast-growing workloads and maintains consistently low access latency. They also can perform analysis quickly and efficiently — where the data lives.

This article analyzes cloud workloads, delving into their forms, functions, and how they influence the cost and efficiency of your cloud infrastructure. Simply put, it’s the set of computational tasks that cloud systems perform, such as hosting databases, enabling collaboration tools, or running compute-intensive algorithms.

A long time ago, in a galaxy far far away, ‘threads’ were a programming novelty rarely used and seldom trusted. Using a connection pool in each module is hardly efficient: Even with a relatively small number of modules, and a small pool size in each, you end up with a lot of server processes. Context-switching between them is costly.

This is a companion paper to the " persistent problem " piece that we looked at earlier this week, going a little deeper into the object pointer representation choices and the mapping of a virtual object space into physical address spaces. Both abstractions must be implemented in a way that is efficient using existing hardware.

Relationships are a fundamental aspect of both the physical and virtual worlds. Modern applications need to quickly navigate connections in the physical world of people, cities, and public transit stations as well as the virtual world of search terms, social posts, and genetic code, for example.

Many high-end disk subsystems provide high-speed cache facilities to reduce the latency of read and write operations. The BPool consumes the majority of the user mode address space leaving only a few 100 MB of the virtual address range free for thread stacks, DLLs, and other activities.
