When it comes to hardware, there was not a lot of big news coming out of the Amazon Web Services re:Invent 2022 conference this week. …
For the first decade that Amazon Web Services was in operation, its Elastic Compute Cloud (EC2) raw compute was available in precisely one flavor: Intel Xeon. …
Any on premises HPC cluster has its own limits of scale and throughput. …
What is the difference between a SmartNIC and a server processor? …
It has been a year since Intel launched its “Skylake” Xeon SP processors, and even though the big cloud builders and hyperscalers had even earlier access to these chips, they are still only just now rolling out new hardware systems and related virtual machine instance types based on the Skylakes. …
It must be tough for the hyperscalers that are expanding into public cloud and the public cloud builders that also use their datacenters to run their own businesses to decide whether to hoard all of the new technologies that they can get their hands on for their own benefit, or to make money selling that capacity to others. …
In the first part in this series, we talked about the nature of processor virtualization on different systems and how this affects the underlying capacity and performance of compute in cloud infrastructure. …
