Solaris to Linux Migration 2017

Brendan Gregg

Linux has been adding tracing technologies over the years: kprobes (kernel dynamic tracing), uprobes (user-level dynamic tracing), tracepoints (static tracing), and perf_events (profiling and hardware counters). In a test environment, I've seen several more Linux panics in the past three years.

Expanding the AWS Cloud – Introducing the AWS Europe (Stockholm) Region

All Things Distributed

In April 2017, Amazon Web Services announced that it would launch a new AWS infrastructure region Region in Sweden. Vivino also uses Auto Scaling to deal with the large seasonal fluctuations in traffic. The AWS Europe (Stockholm) Region is our fifth European Region, joining Dublin, Frankfurt, London, and Paris.

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. Hardware Past As Performance Prologue. The Moto G4 , for example. Hard Reset.

A Tutorial on MongoDB Sharding With Best Practices & When To Enable It

Percona

This blog was originally published in October 2017 and was updated in September 2023. Vertical scaling is also often discussed, which involves increasing the resources of a single server, which can have limitations in hardware capabilities and become costly as demands grow. An example is running MongoDB on Mesos.

The Speed of Time

Brendan Gregg

Since instances of both CentOS and Ubuntu were running in parallel, I could collect flame graphs at the same time (same time-of-day traffic mix) and compare them side by side. As a Xen guest, this profile was gathered using perf(1) and the kernel's software cpu-clock soft interrupts, not the hardware NMI. But I'm not completely sure.

Also, in general terms, a high availability PostgreSQL solution must cover four key areas: Infrastructure: This is the physical or virtual hardware database systems rely on to run. Can you afford the necessary hardware, software, and operational costs of maintaining a PostgreSQL HA solution? there cannot be high availability.

Can You Afford It?: Real-world Web Performance Budgets

Alex Russell

— Alex Russell (@slightlylate) October 4, 2017. Contended, over-subscribed cells can make “fast” networks brutally slow, transport variance can make TCP much less efficient , and the bursty nature of web traffic works against us. We now have everything we need to create a ballpark perf budget for a product in 2017.
