The Linux Plumbers 2012 Microconference - Scaling track focuses on scalability, both upwards and downwards as well as up and down the stack. There are quite a few active projects that are working to enhance performance and scalability both in the Linux kernel and in user-space projects. In fact, one of the purposes of this forum is for developers from different projects to meet and collaborate. After all, for the user to see good performance and scalability, all relevant projects must perform and scale well.
The structure will be similar to what was followed the previous year (2011): about 30 minutes per subject with discussion.
When submitting a proposal for this track, use the prefix “lpc2012-scale-” for the “Name” field.
IMPORTANT: This micro-conference should not overlap with Tracing, nor Real-Time micro-conferences. Probably must happen Friday afternoon.
The schedule of the 2012 Microconference-Scaling and Containers Plumbers Micro Conference was as follows. Note that the presentation slides can be found by following the links to the abstracts:
This is a good place to record notes from your session. All too often, if notes were not written down, the session might as well not have happened.
