      OpenStack and NUMA placement
      <http://thoughtsoncloud.com/2014/08/openstack-numa-placement/>

Nonuniform memory access (NUMA) is a memory architecture that provides
different access times depending on which processor is being used. This
is a useful feature for improving the performance of virtualized guests.
Guests can be optimized to use specific NUMA nodes when provisioning
resources. On most modern hardware, one can specify which NUMA nodes a
guest can use for virtualization. As an example, by improving
performance and reducing latency, the network functions virtualization
(NFV) use cases can really take advantage of it. Tiago Rodrigues de
Mello <http://thoughtsoncloud.com/2014/08/openstack-numa-placement/>
wrote a report on the current plans to improve use NUMA placement and
asked for comments on his blog.


      How do companies do OpenStack?
      <http://maffulli.net/2014/08/04/how-do-companies-do-openstack/>

Yours truly is going around these days asking “how does your company do
OpenStack?” to collect best practices and notable mistakes from various
leaders of OpenStack’s corporate community. I’m hoping to build a ‘how
to’ manual to help managers build better dev teams, more effective at
collaborating while shipping products to their customers. This is an
effort that goes hand-in-hand with training new developers with Upstream
Training and other initiatives aimed at sustaining OpenStack growth.
Email me, please, I’d love to hear more stories.
