On-premises data centers invest in higher capacity servers since they provide more flexibility in the long run, while the procurement price of hardware is only one of many cost factors. Specifically, they provide asynchronous communications within microservices architectures and high-throughput distributed systems.

Computer architecture is an important and exciting field of computer science, which enables many other fields (eg. big-data processing, machine learning, quantum computing, and so on). For those of us who pursued computer architecture as a career, this is well understood. Why is that? Should we be alarmed as a community?

This blog post gives a glimpse of the computer systems research papers presented at the USENIX Annual Technical Conference (ATC) 2019, with an emphasis on systems that use new hardware architectures. As a consequence, the vast majority of the papers in the past has usually focused on conventional X86 or GPU-accelerated architectures.

Building general purpose architectures has always been hard; there are often so many conflicting requirements that you cannot derive an architecture that will serve all, so we have often ended up focusing on one side of the requirements that allow you to serve that area really well. From CPU to GPU. General Purpose GPU programming.

The reality is that many traditional BI solutions are built on top of legacy desktop and on-premises architectures that are decades old. The cost and complexity to implement, scale, and use BI makes it difficult for most companies to make data analysis ubiquitous across their organizations. Enter Amazon QuickSight.

Additionally, many high-end HPC applications take advantage of knowing their in-house hardware platforms to achieve major speedup by exploiting the specific processor architecture. Given the specialized nature of these platforms, they require dedicated resources to maintain and operate and put a big burden on the IT organization.
