How to Handle Big Data

December 7, 2018

An article in the Harvard Business Review recently pointed out that poor data quality is enemy number one preventing the widespread and proftable use of machine learning. And one study found that business and data analysts end up spending 50 to 80% of their time cleaning up datasets. Given that these individuals are typically highly qualifed and highly paid experts, do you really want them spending their time fxing typos and deleting duplicates? Many of these problems can be prevented by taking a strategic approach to data management.

Intel Page Modification Logging, a hardware virtualization feature: study and improvement for virtual machine working set estimation

whitePaper | January 7, 2020

Intel Page Modification Logging (PML) is a novel hardware feature for tracking virtual machine (VM) accessed memory pages. This task is essential in today’s data centers since it allows, among others, checkpointing, live migration and working set size (WSS) estimation. Relying on the Xen hypervisor, this paper studies PML from three angles: power consumption, efficiency, and performance impact on user applications. Our findings are as follows. First, PML does not incur any power consumption overhead. Second, PML reduces by up to 10.18% both VM live migration and checkpointing time. Third, PML slightly reduces by up to 0.95% the performance degradation on applications incurred by live migration and checkpointing.
