More compute power does not replace system architecture
By Uwe Jesgarz, Managing Director, Kithara Software
When systems hit their limits, performance is often equated with compute power: more cores, more parallelism, more throughput. That approach appears logical, but it frequently shifts attention away from the real issue.
Compute power is a resource. Architecture, however, is a decision. Resources can be scaled. Architecture emerges from explicit commitments — especially temporal ones. What...
