2 When Facebook is building entire dead cities for pictures nobody will ever see again, the pure honesty of saying those pictures aren't really worth saving is refreshing. [sent-20, score-0.269]

3 It rooted in the high schools, grew by word of mouth, allowed the free expression and creativity, easy to use, mobile first, group oriented, thrill of random rewards, etc. [sent-21, score-0.144]

4 Adults are all about memory and Facebook perfectly reflects that ethos. [sent-24, score-0.072]

5 I didn't see mention of controlling performance variance to bring down the long tail, but it's clear Rackspace sees the mobile BigData future as requiring speed and that's where they plan to be. [sent-30, score-0.082]

6 Your car is now an embedded real-time system of great complexity. [sent-32, score-0.219]

7 Toyota Acceleration Case : Memory corruption as little as one bit flip can cause a task to die. [sent-34, score-0.248]

8 , bit flip — or via one of the many software bugs, such as buffer overflows and race conditions, we identified in the code. [sent-37, score-0.147]

9 There are tens of millions of combinations of untested task death, any of which could happen in any possible vehicle/software state. [sent-38, score-0.101]

10 8xlarge machines as spot instances is a great way to get a LOT of computer power very cheaply. [sent-42, score-0.187]

11 8xlarge machines out-performs and is cheaper than a large number of lesser instances (and I tried most of the lesser machines). [sent-45, score-0.314]

13 But I can always fix a manual memory management system. [sent-87, score-0.072]

14 Eliminating unexplained traffic jams : Counterintuitively, a car equipped with Horn’s system would also use sensor information about the distance and velocity of the car behind it. [sent-101, score-0.572]

15 A car that stays roughly halfway between those in front of it and behind it won’t have to slow down as precipitously if the car in front of it brakes; but it will also be less likely to pass on any unavoidable disruptions to the car behind it. [sent-102, score-0.863]

16 : Systems biologist Michael White, writing for Pacific Standard, dismisses the narrative that our genetic material is a “highly sophisticated, finely tuned data storage and processing device. [sent-108, score-0.227]

17 ” Instead, he says, it is an apocalyptic wasteland “littered with the rubble of ancient and ongoing battles with hordes of viruses, clone armies of genetic parasites, and zombie genes that should be dead but aren’t. [sent-109, score-0.232]

18 ” Arguing towards an ecology of the eukaryote genome, he likens it to an ecosystem full of communities that have grown, preserved, interacted and competed with each other in a complex system of relationships. [sent-110, score-0.124]

19 zRAM increases performance by avoiding paging on disk and instead uses a compressed block device in RAM in which paging takes place until it is necessary to use the swap space on the hard disk drive. [sent-112, score-0.176]

Introduction: We are on the edge of two potent technological changes: Clouds and Memory Based Architectures. This evolution will rip open a chasm where new players can enter and prosper. Google is the master of disk. You can't beat them at a game they perfected. Disk based databases like SimpleDB and BigTable are complicated beasts, typical last gasp products of any aging technology before a change. The next era is the age of Memory and Cloud which will allow for new players to succeed. The tipping point will be soon. Let's take a short trip down web architecture lane: It's 1993: Yahoo runs on FreeBSD, Apache, Perl scripts and a SQL database It's 1995: Scale-up the database. It's 1998: LAMP It's 1999: Stateless + Load Balanced + Database + SAN It's 2001: In-memory data-grid. It's 2003: Add a caching layer. It's 2004: Add scale-out and partitioning. It's 2005: Add asynchronous job scheduling and maybe a distributed file system. It's 2007: Move it all into the cloud. It's 2008: C

Introduction: I am in no way a music expert, but when I listen to Symphony No. 4 by Charles Ives , I imagine it's what a complex software/hardware system might sound like if we could hear its inner workings. Ives uses a lot of riotously competing rhythms in this work. It can sound discordant, yet the effect is deeply layered and eventually harmonious, just like the systems we use, create, and become part of. I was pointed to this piece by someone who said there were two conductors. I'd never heard of such a thing! So I was intrigued. The first version of the performance sounds and looks great, but it unfortunately does not use two conductors. The second version uses two conductors, but is unfortunately just a snippet. It's strikingly odd to see two conductors, but I imagine different parts of our systems using different conductors too, running at different rhythms, sometimes slow, sometimes fast, sometimes there are outbursts, sometimes in vicious conflict. Yet conceptually it all stills seem

Introduction: Jesper Söderlund not only put together a few interesting  scalability patterns , he also came up with a few interesting  scalability lessons : Lesson #1 . Put Smarty compile and template caches on an active-active DRBD cluster with high load and your servers will DIE! Lesson #2 . Don't use out-of-the-box configurations. Lesson #3 . Single points of contention will eventually become a bottleneck. Lesson #4 . Plan in advance.  Lesson #5 . Offload your databases as much as possible. Lesson #6 . File systems matter and can run out of space / inodes. For more details and explanations see the original post.

Introduction: My Life With Hbase by Lars George. The hardscabble tale of Hbase's growth from infancy to maturity. A very good introduction and overview of Hbase. NoSQL Alternatives -- Common Principles and Patterns for Building Scalable Applications . Explore the common principles behind the major NOSQL alternatives and how they compared with traditional database approach in terms of consistency, transaction and query semantics. We will also explore how we can make the transition between the two models smoothers through the support of standard interfaces such as JPA. Moore’s Law: The Future of Cloud Computing from the Bottom Up . Will Intel's 48 mega core chip change the world or be just another Spruce Goose? Rent or Own: Amazon EC2 vs. Colocation Comparison for Hadoop Clusters . It's much cheaper to own when you have a large relatively fixed size cluster and can find really cheap labor to maintain it all. A cloud in a plug - brilliant . A tiny, low-power, low-cost home server and N

Introduction: Amazon is fixing two of their major problems: no static IP addresses and single datacenter operation. By adding these two new features developers can finally build a no apology system on Amazon. Before you always had to throw in an apology or two. No, we don't have low failover times because of the silly DNS games and unexceptionable DNS update and propagation times and no, we don't operate in more than one datacenter. No more. Now Amazon is adding Elastic IP Addresses and Availability Zones . Elastic IP addresses are far better than normal IP addresses because they are both in tight with Jessica Alba and they are: Static IP addresses designed for dynamic cloud computing. An Elastic IP address is associated with your account, not a particular instance, and you control that address until you choose to explicitly release it. Unlike traditional static IP addresses, however, Elastic IP addresses allow you to mask instance or availability zone failures by programmatica
