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. A year or so later, in 2011, Netflix also launched their (free) official iPhone app, and my sales plummeted! I eventually removed my app from the app store.

For a myriad of reasons, older hardware can't always accommodate faster speeds. to DOCSIS 3.0. After DOCSIS 4.0

This was a chance to talk about other things I've been working on, such as the present and future of hardware performance. The video is on [youtube]: The slides are on [slideshare] or as a [PDF]: I work on many areas of performance, but recently I've had a lot of demand to talk about BPF.

To be robust and scalable, this key/value store needs to be distributed for durability and availability, to protect against network partitions or hardware failures. Amazon ECS’ architecture is designed to share the state of the cluster and allow customers to run as many varieties of schedulers (e.g., containers stopping and starting).

Hardware Past As Performance Prologue. If those specs sound eerily familiar, it's perhaps because they're identical to 2016's $200USD Moto G4 , all the way down to the 2011-vintage 28nm SoC process node used to fab the chip's anemic, 2012-vintage A53 cores.

I said something similar to the above, but with two important differences: I said hardware “threads,” not only hardware “cores” – it was about the amount of hardware parallelism available on a mainstream system. Longer answer follows: Here’s the main part from article, “Design for Manycore Systems” (August 11, 2009).
