5 Generality Efficiency CPUs 1000x CMPs Manycore GPGPUs ALU arrays ASICs Cloud: Two main challenges for specialization Want homogeneous (to the extent possible) server infrastructure Need five years of stability for ASICs (2 to design, 3 for use), software changes monthly Client: Area is precious, must be both general and efficient Uncanny valley between CPUs and ASICS (where accelerators go to die)

6 5.8+ billion worldwide queries each month 250+ million active users 400+ million active accounts 2.4+ million s per day 8.6+ trillion objects in Microsoft Azure storage 48+ million users in 41 markets 50+ million active users 1 in 4 enterprise customers 50+ billion minutes of connections handled each month 200+ Cloud Services 1+ billion customers 20+ million businesses 90+ markets worldwide
