Gen 5 is the primary hardware option now for most regions since Gen 4 is aging out. Microsoft took that idea and built a new compute tier called Azure SQL Database serverless, which became generally available in November 2019. New Hardware Configuration for Provisioned Compute Tier. GB per vCore.

HotStorage 2019. Both abstractions must be implemented in a way that is efficient using existing hardware. The hardware perspective. At the hardware level we want to able to move data into, out of , and around memory, without consideration for persistence and reference lifetimes. Application requirements. Object spaces.

My personal opinion is that I don't see a widespread need for more capacity given horizontal scaling and servers that can already exceed 1 Tbyte of DRAM; bandwidth is also helpful, but I'd be concerned about the increased latency for adding a hop to more memory. Ford, et al., “TCP

In 2019, YouTube had to settle with the FTC for a $170 million fine for selling ads targeting children. While techniques like federated learning are on the horizon, to avoid latency issues and mass data collection, it remains to be seen whether those techniques are satisfactory for companies that collect data.

KeyCDN

Using an image CDN, such as KeyCDN, can significantly reduce the latency of your image delivery. Well, according to HTTP Archive , as of June 1, 2019 the average desktop page is 1,896.8 The main reason is because it decreases the latency to the user where they are located by serving your images from a POP physically closest to them.

A Cassandra database cluster had switched to Ubuntu and noticed write latency increased by over 30%. As a Xen guest, this profile was gathered using perf(1) and the kernel's software cpu-clock soft interrupts, not the hardware NMI. In 2019 myself and others tested kvm-clock and found it was only about 20% slower than tsc.

The Apache MADLib project is still going strong, and the recent (July 2019) 1.16 SQL provides a declarative programming interface, below which the system itself can figure out the most effective execution plans based on data size and statistics, layout, compute hardware etc. release even includes some support for deep learning.

Estimated Input Latency tells us if we are hitting that threshold, and ideally, it should be below 50ms. Designed for the modern web, it responds to actual congestion, rather than packet loss like TCP does, it is significantly faster , with higher throughput and lower latency — and the algorithm works differently.
