POWER is not just for databases

  • 1.  POWER is not just for databases

    Posted 11 days ago

    Last week was a bit hectic, I pushed out a new syslog-ng release. So, I completely forgot to share here my latest blog: https://peter.czanik.hu/posts/power-is-not-just-for-databases/ I wrote it out of annoyance: whenever I mention POWER, everyone thinks about databases. However, POWER is a fantastic platform for HPC too, or practically any type of server applications, including syslog-ng :-) Back in the days an entry level Power9 box could serve 3x more requests with syslog-ng than the fastest x86 server I had access to. I wonder how P11 would perform!
