Getting to the Core: Benchmarking Cloudflare’s Latest Server Hardware
A refresh of the hardware that Cloudflare uses to run analytics provided big efficiency improvements.
Why Cloudflare Chose AMD EPYC for Gen X Servers
Looking back at this week's posts on the design, specifications, and performance of Cloudflare’s Gen X servers using AMD CPUs. Every server can run every service. This architectural decision has helped us achieve higher efficiency across the Cloudflare network.
Gen X Performance Tuning
We have partnered with AMD to get the best performance out of this processor and today, we are highlighting our tuning efforts that led to an additional 6% performance. Thermal design power (TDP) and dynamic power, amongst others, play a critical role when tuning a system.
