A look behind the scenes of AWS Lambda and our new Lambda monitoring extension

Dynatrace

since 2017, and many customers have used it with great success while we collected requirements for the next iteration of our Lambda extension. Distributing accounts across the infrastructure is an architectural decision, as a given account often has similar usage patterns, languages, and sizes for their Lambda functions.

The Performance Inequality Gap, 2021

Alex Russell

TL;DR: A lot has changed since 2017 when we last estimated a global baseline resource per-page resource budget of 130-170KiB. To update our global baseline from 2017, we want to update our priors on a few dimensions: The evolved device landscape. The Moto G4 , for example. Here begins our 2021 adventure. Hard Reset.

The Performance Inequality Gap, 2024

Alex Russell

Put another way, the performance gap between what devices the wealthy carry and what budget shoppers carry grew more this year (252 points) than the year-over-year gains from process and architecture at the volume price point (174 points). So what did $650, give or take, buy in late 2017 or early 2018? That's where the good news ends.

Is Intel Doomed in the Server CPU Space?

SQL Performance

Intel officially moved on to what they call " Process- Architecture-Optimization (PAO) " in early 2016. AMD has capitalized on this with their Zen architecture , and new Zen 2 architecture , using a modular, 7nm manufacturing process from Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company (TSMC). There are many reasons!
