Does Hardware Matter in the Cloud?

Event:

Appearance: Intel Tech Field Day Showcase

Company: Intel

Video Links:

Personnel: Alastair Cooke

The narrative that hardware does not matter in the cloud is driven chiefly by the growing importance of software. In this Tech Field Day Showcase, presented to you by Intel, Alastair Cooke, cloud provider course teacher and co-author of Digital Infrastructure at Datacenter Scale zooms into this perception to provide an understanding of what created it in the first place and the truth of it. Asking what’s more important – the hardware or the software – is like the chicken or egg paradox. But the reality is, software that occupies the centerstage needs the hardware to exist. Without hardware, innovation at software level is not possible.


The Perfect Configuration

Appearance: Intel Tech Field Day Showcase

Personnel: Ather Beg

The fastest processors do not necessarily guarantee the highest performance in a datacenter. In this Tech Field Day Showcase presented to you by Intel, Solutions Architect and co-author of Digital Infrastructure at Datacenter Scale, Ather Beg highlights a section of the whitepaper he wrote – The Perfect Configuration, where he debunks the hype around processors. Ather argues that a processor alone cannot deliver ultimate levels of performance without the support of other components. In fact, the secret to unlocking high levels of performance is getting the configuration right, and the perfect configuration is one in which all the components in the server are equally optimized.

Where Do We Draw the Line Between Storage Infrastructure and Data – Storage Field Day Roundtable

Event: Storage Field Day 24

Appearance: Storage Field Day 24 Delegate Roundtable

Company: Tech Field Day

Video Links:

Personnel: Stephen Foskett

Infrastructure is no longer the focus of enterprise IT, with the value of data and applications rising in prominence. Although infrastructure software and services are critical areas of consideration, the individual components that underly these systems are no longer as important. Most compute, memory, storage, and networking components function and perform similarly, so it takes a truly exceptional device to rise above the abstraction of datacenter and cloud platforms. Even when we do talk about IT infrastructure we are often referring to infrastructure as a service (cloud) or infrastructure as code not individual devices.

This roundtable discussion is moderated by Stephen Foskett of Gestalt IT and features commentary by Ray Lucchesi, Enrico Signoretti, Richard Kenyan, Andy Banta, Glenn Dekhayser, Frederic Van Haren, Gina Rosenthal, and Max Mortillaro.


Managing the Blast Radius as System Components Get Bigger – Storage Field Day Roundtable

Event: Storage Field Day 24

Appearance: Storage Field Day 24 Delegate Roundtable

Company: Tech Field Day

Video Links:

Personnel: Stephen Foskett

As every component of IT infrastructure gets bigger, we need to consider the impact of component faults. The so-called blast radius due to a failure has always been a consideration, and was taken into account with RAID, replication, high-availability architecture, and more. Even a small server has over a dozen cores, a terabyte of memory, and many terabytes of storage. We must also consider the inflation of data, adjusting for the size of applications and data sets, when comparing the impact versus historic systems. The reason components have become so large has more to do with economics of production and sale than with customer demands, and the ratio of storage capacity to data throughput has fallen, making the blast radius a real concern.

The conversation is moderated by Stephen Foskett of Gestalt IT and features David Klee, Enrico Signoretti, Glenn Dekhayser, Andy Banta, Ray Lucchesi, Frederic Van Haren, Richard Kenyan, Gina Rosenthal, and Jim Czuprynski.
