For your eyes only: improving Netflix video quality with neural networks

The Netflix TechBlog

During training, our goal is to generate the best downsampled representation such that, after upscaling, the mean squared error is minimized. We focus on a robust downscaler that is trained given a conventional upscaler, like bicubic. We focus on a robust downscaler that is trained given a conventional upscaler, like bicubic.

A case for managed and model-less inference serving

The Morning Paper

As we saw with the SOAP paper last time out, even with a fixed model variant and hardware there are a lot of different ways to map a training workload over the available hardware. Perhaps inspired by serverless in spirit and in terminology, the path forward proposed in this paper is towards a managed and model-less inference serving system.

A 5G future

O'Reilly

For applications like communication between AVs, latency–how long it takes to get a response–is more likely to be a bigger limitation than raw bandwidth, and is subject to limits imposed by physics. There are impressive estimates for latency for 5G, but reality has a tendency to be harsh on such predictions.

O’Reilly serverless survey 2019: Concerns, what works, and what to expect

O'Reilly

For the inaugural O’Reilly survey on serverless architecture adoption, we were pleasantly surprised at the high level of response: more than 1,500 respondents from a wide range of locations, companies, and industries participated. The high response rate tells us that serverless is garnering significant mindshare in the community.

How We Optimized Performance To Serve A Global Audience

Smashing Magazine

As an online booking platform, we connect travelers with transport providers worldwide, offering bus, ferry, train, and car transfers in over 30 countries. This proximity significantly reduces the time it takes for the data to travel from the server to the user, thus reducing latency and improving load times. LCP in seconds.
