

2010: 2.57 petaflops
2005: 280.6 teraflops
2000: 4.94 teraflops
1995: 170 gigaflops

Performance progress (2)

In 2010, we measure the performance of
the fastest supercomputers in petaflops
(quadrillions of operations per second).
In 1995, we used gigaflops (billions of
operations per second). We are now
using the scale a million times larger
than we did 15 years ago.

Tasks and computers

Need for performance
 Amount of the data
 Resolution / quality / complexity

Growing demand
 More online users
 More applications running
11
Scaling thing (1)

Personal computer
 Simple, personal computing tasks

16
Cloud computing (2)
Grid computing
 SOA
 Client-server

 distributed application that distinguishes
between service providers (servers) and
service requesters (clients)

Peer-to-peer
 distributed architecture without the need for
central coordination
17
5 essential characteristics
On-demand self-service
 Broad network access
 Resource pooling
 Rapid elasticity
 Measured service

18
Service models
Infrastructure (IaaS)
 Platform (PaaS)
 Software (SaaS)
 Network (NaaS)
 Database (DBaaS)

21
Virtualization (1)

VM technology allows multiple virtual
machines to run on a single physical
machine
22
Virtualization (2)
Advantages of virtual machines:
 Run operating systems where the physical hardware is

unavailable;
Easier to create new machines, backup machines, etc.;
Software testing using “clean” installs of operating
systems and software;
Emulate more machines than are physically available;
Timeshare lightly loaded systems on one host,
Debug problems (suspend and resume the problem
machine);
Easy migration of virtual machines (shutdown needed or
not);
Run legacy systems!
23

25
Disadvantages of Cloud
Computing (1)
 Requires
a constant Internet
connection
