SYNTHESIS LECTURES ON COMPUTER ARCHITECTURE D...

An era of big data demands datacenters  which house the computing infrastructure that
translates raw data into valuable information. This book defines datacenters broadly  as large
distributed systems that perform parallel computation for diverse users. These systems exist in
multiple forms-private and public-and are built at multiple scales. Datacenter design and
management is multifaceted  requiring the simultaneous pursuit of multiple objectives.
Performance  efficiency  and fairness are first-order design and management objectives  which
can each be viewed from several perspectives. This book surveys datacenter research from a
computer architect's perspective  addressing challenges in applications  design  management 
server simulation  and system simulation. This perspective complements the rich bodies of work
in datacenters as a warehouse-scale system  which study the implications for infrastructure
that encloses computing equipment  and in datacenters as distributed systems  which employ
abstract details in processor and memory subsystems. This book is written for first- or
second-year graduate students in computer architecture and may be helpful for those in computer
systems. The goal of this book is to prepare computer architects for datacenter-oriented
research by describing prevalent perspectives and the state-of-the-art.
