This Week I Learned - Week #294
This Week I Learned -
* Azure DevOps offers 99.9 percent SLA and new features every three weeks.
* When you're migrating from an On-premises world, you use the physical cores which have hyper threading. In GCP we call these vCPUs or virtual CPUs. A vCPU is equivalent to one hyper threaded core. Therefore, if you have a single core hyper threaded CPU On-premises that would essentially be two virtual CPUs to one physical core. So, always keep that in mind as oftentimes, people will immediately do a test. They'll say, "I have a four core physical machine and I'm going to run four cores in the Cloud." And ask why their performance isn't the same - Essential Cloud Infrastructure: Foundation, Coursera
* Created at Netflix, Spinnaker is an open source, multi-cloud continuous delivery platform for releasing software changes with high velocity.
* Use Google Cloud Memorystore to build application caches that provides sub-millisecond data access. Cloud Memorystore is compatible with the Redis protocol, allowing easy migration with zero code changes.
* Your data stored in Google Archival Cloud Storage - Nearline and Coldline is available to you in sub-second average response times, rather than in hours or days.
* The most common protocols for exporting file shares are Network File System (NFS) for Linux and the Common Internet File System (CIFS) for Windows.
* GCP Custom VM types allow you to allocate up to 624 GB of memory and up to 96 cores per machine.
* Amazon EC2 Instance Store provides temporary block-level storage for your instance. This storage is located on disks that are physically attached to the host computer. An instance store consists of one or more instance store volumes exposed as block devices.
* GCP Local SSDs have an even higher throughput and lower latency than SSD persistent disks because they're attached to the physical hardware.
* The official set of icons to build architectural diagrams of Google Cloud Platform are available at cloud.google.com/icons/
* Fitbit has a female health tracking feature
* India now has more users of Whatsapp (over 200 million, or one in six Indians) than any other country
* If mangoes have been naturally ripened, the smell should be apparent from at least four meters away...the proper way to handle the prized Alphonso variety - “They are just like eggs: if they bang a little, they rot.”
* “You only have power over people as long as you don't take everything away from them. But when you've robbed a man of everything, he's no longer in your power—he's free again.” ― Alexander Solzhenitsyn
