He is joining us to talk about "\;doubling performance in Swi ft with no code changes"\; \;\n \;\nAll interpreted languages come to the point in their evolution where a radical turn is needed to o ptimize performance and a Just In Time (JIT) compilation is the directio n they have all turned. We would argue that now is the time for Python. In perhaps an extreme case\, Swift’s performance is greatly affected by the latency of Python’s default CPython interpreter. Recently Swift thr oughput was improved 111% on a 15 node storage cluster and response time was boosted 87%. This was achieved by using PyPy\, the JIT version of P ython. This talk will describe a proof-of-concept study using PyPy in pr oduction with Swift\, offer a roadmap for broad adoption of PyPy in the Python world\, and provide clear steps for implementing PyPy in Swift.&# 13\;\n \;\nBio: David Stewart is the manager of the Server Language O ptimization Team in the Data Center Software Technology group at Intel w here he helped launch the effort. David has been an operating systems de velopment expert for his whole career\, starting out with Unix in 1980. David serves on various boards including the Yocto Project Advisory Boar d and the CE Linux Working Group\, both part of the Linux Foundation. Be fore the formation of his current team\, David held a variety of managem ent positions in Intel’s Software and Services Group and in Intel’s Desk top Boards and Systems division. \n\nTags: openstack devops linux cloud intel\n\nImported from: http://calagator.org/events/1250470228 URL:http://www.meetup.com/openstack-pdx/events/229908263/ SUMMARY:OpenStack PDX May LOCATION:Puppet: 308 SW 2nd Ave Fifth Floor\, Portland OR 97204 US SEQUENCE:1 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT CREATED;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20160701T192751Z DTEND;TZID=America/Los_Angeles;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20160721T200000 DTSTART;TZID=America/Los_Angeles;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20160721T180000 DTSTAMP;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20160701T192751Z LAST-MODIFIED;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20160701T192751Z UID:http://calagator.org/events/1250470523 DESCRIPTION:Have you heard of the OpenStack Innovation Center (aka OSIC h ttps://osic.org/)? It's a joint effort between Rackspace and Intel desi gned to ultimately consist of about 2\,000 physical nodes deployed at tw o data centers in Texas and California\, OSIC is expected to further acc elerate the development of OpenStack capabilities and their adoption in the enterprise. \;\n \;\nSonu Sreenivasan and David Brown will joi n us on July 21st to talk about everything under the OSIC umbrella - in cluding how developers can request access for their testing and developm ent\, and some of the use cases they've seen deployed in the environment . \;\n \;\nWe will also be celebrating OpenStack's 6th birthday th is month\, so please come help us honor six years of incredible growth a nd progress in the OpenStack world! \;\n \;\nAbout our presenters this month: \;\nSonu Sreenivasan is a Program Manager at the OpenSour ce Technoloy Center at Intel. He also oversees the engineering execution for the OSIC partnership. He brings with him about 18 years of industry experience spread across\, software design &\; development\, IT Oper ations\, program management\, and cross-geo software delivery management across various business verticals. He has been with Intel for over 15 y ears and was based across multiple geographies. Sonu has a Bachelors in Physics and a Masters in Computer Science \;\n \;\nDavid Brown is the director of the Data Center SW Planning team\, primarily focused on driving Intel's OpenStack strategy. Prior to joining Intel\, David was V ice President of Professional Services at Sequent Computers where his fo cus was to manage a global consulting operation.\n\nTags: openstack devo ps linux cloud intel\n\nImported from: http://calagator.org/events/12504 70523 URL:http://www.meetup.com/openstack-pdx/events/231959323/ SUMMARY:OpenStack PDX July LOCATION:Puppet: 308 SW 2nd Ave Fifth Floor\, Portland OR 97204 US SEQUENCE:1 END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
