Distributed Low Latency Micro Data Centers

1. Distributed Low Latency Micro
Data Centers
by Jens Struckmeier, Cloud and Heat Technologies

2. Motivation
„whoever controls latency will control
cloud computing“
Victor Bahl, Director@MSR, 2015

3. Latency
• Latency matters:
• Amazon: every 100ms, 1% drop revenue
• Yahoo: 500ms latency increase, 30% drop in traffic
• Gaming: 5ms ok vs 80ms - degradation in user experience
• …

4. All this will massively grow in the
next 5 years

10. Vertical scaling always has a limit

11. You need a solution which provides…
Security ResiliencySpeed & Latency
FlexibilityProximity Availability
100%

12. Speed of light is the limit…
200km / ms

13. Meet the Cloud & Heat Compute Grid

14. Why is Distributed better?

15. Millions of Years of Evolution
Slice and Distribute – Why can’t you just download your brain?

16. Speed
Proximity & Latency

17. Speed - Proximity
Latency – the limit is the speed of light

18. Transportation
• Offloading computations to edge cloud:
• Recognize traffic signs (safety critical)
• Recognize pedestrians & danger (safety critical)
• Platooning of cars (safety critical)
• Reduction in Energy Consumption of electric cars
• …

19. Lifetime?
Life Expectation:
servers: 3 yrs (data centers)
car: 18 yrs ;
truck: 24 yrs
motorcycle: 28 yrs

• Problem:
• how can we run new / updated
services on old computer hardware?
• Approach:
• offload some / service to edge cloud

21. Security Resiliency
Flexibility Availability
