The name of the game among the hyperscalers is to use their hardware and software engineering to get their infrastructure compute and storage costs coming down faster than the rate of Moore’s Law improvements for the components that make up their systems. …
Software containers are different from virtual machines and the hypervisers that host them, and they need a very different set of management tools to use them in large scale enterprise, hyperscale, and cloud environments. …
Back in the late 1980s, while working in the Adaptive Systems Research Department at AT&T Bell Labs, deep leaning pioneer, Yann LeCun, was just starting down the path of implementing brain-inspired machine learning concepts for image recognition and processing—an effort that would eventually lead to some of the first realizations of these technologies in voice recognition for calling systems and handwriting analysis for banks. …
Two years ago, the CoreOS distribution of Linux was created by two guys literally working out of a garage who wanted to make software containers the key feature, rather than an add-on, to a Linux distribution for servers. …
A database technology called Bigtable that search engine giant Google launched internally more than a decade ago and has spent the ensuing years perfecting as the underpinning of its search engine and advertising business is going commercial. …
The fact that Google calls its massive-scale resource management framework “Borg” is, in itself, rather a brilliant thing. …
For most companies in most industries, riding down the Moore’s Law curve to get more compute power for the same money is good enough. …
It is safe to say that there have never been more ways to store massive amounts of data of varying degrees of structure and to dice, slice, and correlate that data to gain some insight from it. …
If there is one lesson that the big three public cloud providers teach, it is that there is no substitute for breadth and depth in software engineering. …
