We had some fun getting hardware figured out, and I used a 3D printer to make some cases, but the whole project was interrupted by the delivery of the iPhone by Apple in late 2007. In September 2008 Netflix ran an internal hack day event. They were about to launch a public API and wanted internal teams to try it out before launch.

Jack: Since our launch in late 2008, weve grown to over 6 million teachers and students globally primarily through word of mouth of teachers who have shared Edmodo with each other.

A close monitoring of the hardware enthusiast community, including many of the most respected hardware analysts and reviewers paints an even more dire picture about Intel in the server processor space. This made it easier for database professionals to make the case for a hardware upgrade, and made the typical upgrade more worthwhile.

This is the second generation EPYC server processor that uses the same Zen 2 architecture as the AMD Ryzen 3000 Series desktop processors. It will also use less power than a two-socket Intel server, with a lower hardware cost, and potentially lower licensing costs (for things like VMware). Higher memory density/capacity.
