Metrics are measures of critical system values, such as CPU utilization or average write latency to persistent storage. For example, in 2005, Dynatrace introduced a distributed tracing tool that allowed developers to implement local tracing and debugging. Observability is made up of three key pillars: metrics, logs, and traces.

Hardware virtualization for cloud computing has come a long way, improving performance using technologies such as VT-x, SR-IOV, VT-d, NVMe, and APICv. At Netflix, we've been using these technologies as they've been made available for instance types in the AWS EC2 cloud. The AMI and boot are now HVM.

For more than two decades, the answer to this challenge has proven to be a technology called in-memory computing. The pace of these changes has made it challenging for server-based infrastructures to manage fast-growing populations of users and data sources while maintaining fast response times.

In the not too distant past, storage was limited and expensive. As recently as 1980, 1 megabyte of disk storage cost $200. Storage capacity is now so abundant and compact that you can record every voice conversation you’ll ever have in a device that can fit into the palm of your hand. But this is no longer the case.
