Around 2005 or 2006, it wasn’t so bad. From Udi Dahan's free Distributed Systems Design Fundamentals video course Semantic interoperability The true challenge of non-homogenous networks lies in semantic interoperability. Interoperability is painful. Since then, things have gotten gradually worse. First came Ruby and Ruby on Rails.

Looking back at 10 years of compartmentalization at AWS

All Things Distributed

But every year when March 14th comes around, it's a good reminder that Amazon S3 originally launched on Pi Day, March 14, 2006. Even though the network design for each data center is massively redundant, interruptions can still occur. At AWS, we don't mark many anniversaries. Regional isolation.

Proposal for a Realtime Carbon Footprint Standard

Adrian Cockcroft

I published a paper and presentation in 2006 that discusses the complexities of measuring CPU utilization. There’s a network traffic driven allocation of the energy use of the network switches that connect computers. The apportionment model should be identified in the collected data and be a pluggable module.

All Things Distributed

The epoch of AWS is the launch of Amazon S3 on March 14, 2006, now almost 10 years ago. The importance of the network. Each of those workloads have unique requirements when it comes to the network. Because network access is a shared resource, customers previously could experience significant jitter on the network at times.

The psychology of site speed and human happiness

Speed Curve

Some participants were served pages at normal speeds over WiFi, while others were served pages at a consistently slowed-down speed (using software that created an artificial 500-millisecond network delay). Some highlights of the study's findings: Users experienced frustration peaks of up to 26% at critical points.
