System Architecture

Setting up a terabit network overseas and operating it securely – the NFL showed how it's done for the matchup between the New York Giants and Carolina Panthers in Munich.

This AI stuff is cool, but GPU inference is not needed all of the time. Most of the time your instances stay idle, which means you're just burning investor money without any real benefit. Today we'll learn how to make your compute spread between hosts nomadically, hunting deals and using Tigris to make it all possible.

Learn the basics of message queues and how they enhance system design for modern software development.

Before diving into any specific programming language, aspiring developers should master these essential concepts that form the foundation of all software development.

For most of the history of high performance computing, a supercomputer was a freestanding, isolated machine that was designed to run some simulation or

Exploring the web's clipboard APIs, their limitations, and their history.

If you were to design an open social networking protocol, what would that look like? Which metaphors and comparisons would you use to get a general idea of how the network functions? And what would you answer if people ask if your network is decentralised and federated?

Insights into performance-related data made accessible.

These terms often get used interchangeably, but each one refers to a distinct attribute of system design.

There is almost no limit to the things we can build if we understand what blockchains are really for, says Ethereum researcher Vlad Zamfir.

Gender is not a binary, and a binary is not a boolean.

Vacation auto-responders got you feeling down? Try something a bit more imaginative and take email system customization to the max! See how the best of old-school sysadmin meets bleeding edge extensibility technology.

While I was probably late to learn the concept of strategy testing, I might have learned about systems modeling too early in my career, stumbling on Donella Meadows’ Thinking in Systems: A Primer before I began my career in software. Over the years, I’ve discovered a number of ways to miuse systems modeling, but it remains the most effective, flexible tool I’ve found to debugging complex problems. In this chapter, we’ll work through:

USB 2 hubs are, by now, omnipresent. it doesn’t cost much to add to your board, and you truly have tons of options. The standard option is 4-port hubs – one uplink port to your host, fo…

When we think of an m.2 slot in our laptop or similar, it’s usually in the context of its PCI connectivity for high-speed applications such as solid state disks. It’s a connector that o…

I’m liking my new talk about Empirical Software Design.

Technology Readiness Levels (TRL) are a type of measurement system used to assess the maturity level of a particular technology. Each technology project is

Ubuntu releases are made semiannually by Canonical Ltd, its developers, using the year and month of the release as a version number. The first Ubuntu release, for example, was Ubuntu 4.10 and was released on 20 October 2004. Consequently, version numbers for future versions are provisional; if the release is delayed until a different month than planned, the version number will change accordingly.

Large Action Models and Large Language Models are transforming AI. Explore the myths, realities, and their impact on AI evolution and data resilience.

The PACELC theorem provides a more comprehensive framework for reasoning about distributed systems, ensuring we consider both partition scenarios and the real-time impact of latency.

Given that events play such a central role in event-driven architecture, there’s an astonishing lack of agreement on what should be contained in an event. This may be rooted in the fact that, depending on your perspective, events fulfill different purposes.

Technology readiness levels (TRLs) are a method for estimating the maturity of technologies during the acquisition phase of a program. TRLs enable consistent and uniform discussions of technical maturity across different types of technology. TRL is determined during a technology readiness assessment (TRA) that examines program concepts, technology requirements, and demonstrated technology capabilities. TRLs are based on a scale from 1 to 9 with 9 being the most mature technology.

With Heisenware, manufacturing and crafts businesses build low-code apps and digitize their processes. No experience or programming skills required.

Today’s vector databases disconnect embeddings from their source data. We should treat embeddings more like database indexes—here’s how.
