14.104 Multicore Storage Hierarchies, NUMA

テクノロジー



My book “Patterns in Data Management” is now available both as an ebook or a print book (with color graphics!). See: http://amzn.to/1Ts3rwx This book is not a standard textbook on database techniques. This book was written extending and complementing preexisting educational videos (including this one).

How are the two terms core and CPU related? How does a typical multicore storage hierarchy look like? What is different compared to the storage hierachy? Why isn’t L1 shared as well among multiple cores? What is a Non-Uniform Memory Access (NUMA) architecure? What is different compared to the multicore architecture? What does this imply for accesses to DRAM? Bonus Question: How again does this relate to The All Levels Are Equal?

Video for my inverted classroom “Database Systems”.
