In the Cloud, Distance Matters for Compute Efficiency

March 28, 2013 03:32 PM

Researchers from UC San Diego and Google found cloud-based applications will run as much as 20% more efficiently when data is located close by.

Calling It: NUMA Will Be The Shizzle In Two Years

May 04, 2010 09:00 AM

No matter how much hardware and software we throw at data center computing, there is the hard fact that we are limited to using only the resources on a single piece of server hardware. Oh, we can virtualize the PCI bus and share peripherals among multiple servers with virtual IO, and that has use cases. Non-Uniform Memory Architecture (NUMA) is used in high-performance computing to aggregate fundamental computer resources like CPU, RAM and IO across a high speed bus. NUMA has the capability of virtualizing the hardware itself and it's going to be the hot thing within two years.

HP's Superdome 2: Bigger, Badder Computing

April 28, 2010 08:00 AM

In the realm of high-performance computing, more is better. HP has announced an upgrade to it's Cache Coherent Non-Uniform Memory Access (ccNUMA) computing platform, Superdome, named Superdome 2. Superdome 2 provides flexible scalability and fault tolerance necessary for high-performance computing. While NUMA-based systems like Superdome and Superdome 2 have been relegated to relatively niche markets focused on high-performance computing and high-speed transactions, as IT moves towards virtualization, your data center will start to resemble an HPC cluster rather than a rack of servers.

Harnessing vSphere Performance Benefits for NUMA
