An open-source benchmark suite for microservices and their hardware-software implications for cloud & edge systems

The Morning Paper

An open-source benchmark suite for microservices and their hardware-software implications for cloud & edge systems Gan et al., Systems built with lots of microservices have different operational characteristics to those built from a small number of monoliths, we’d like to study and better understand those differences.

Why business digital transformation is still a key C-level priority today

Dynatrace

AI and DevOps, of course The C suite is also betting on certain technology trends to drive the next chapter of digital transformation: artificial intelligence and DevOps. For one Dynatrace customer, a hardware and software provider, introducing automation into DevOps processes was a game-changer. And according to Statista , $2.4

Balancing Low Latency, High Availability, and Cloud Choice

VoltDB

Low usage or over-engineered legacy systems Until the arrival of cloud hosting, nobody knew how to size anything properly, or they did know but never got a chance to. Prototypes, experiments, and tests Development and testing historically involved end-of-life or ‘spare’ hardware. When is the cloud a bad idea?

Machine learning systems are stuck in a rut

The Morning Paper

Machine learning systems are stuck in a rut Barham & Isard, HotOS’19. In this paper we argue that systems for numerical computing are stuck in a local basin of performance and programmability. But that won’t solve the ordering issue of course.

Scaling False Peaks

O'Reilly

The claim is that AGI is now simply a matter of improving performance, both in hardware and software, and making models bigger, using more data and more kinds of data across more modes. When we look at other systems and scales, it’s easy to be drawn to superficial similarities in the small and project them into the large.

The Cloud is Not a Railroad - An Argument Against the Vertical Separation of Cloud Providers

High Scalability

Each cloud-native evolution is about using the hardware more efficiently. Anyone can rent a rack in a colo and stand up a system. Of course not, but let's ignore that very few organizations in the world have the technological know-how to create such managed services, especially without low level control of the entire system.
