There’s nothing worse than wasting money on unnecessary costs. In on-premises data estates, these costs appear as wasted person-hours waiting for inefficient analytics to complete, or troubleshooting jobs that have failed to execute as expected, or at all. They manifest as idle hardware waiting for urgent workloads to come in, ensuring sufficient spare capacity to run them amidst noisy neighbors and resource-hungry, lower-priority workloads.

Tail utilization is a significant system issue and a major factor in overload-related failures and low compute utilization. The tail utilization optimizations at Meta have had a profound impact on model serving capacity footprint and reliability. Failure rates, which are mostly timeout errors, were reduced by two-thirds; the compute footprint delivered 35% more work for the same amount of resources; and p99 latency was cut in half.

SysAdmins have no trouble making big lists of what can go wrong and what we're doing to stave that off a little longer. The tricky problem is pushing large organizations to take a harder look at systemic risks and taking them seriously. I mean, the big companies have to have disaster recovery (DR) plans for compliance reasons; but there are a lot of differences between box-ticking DR plans and comprehensive DR plans.

And that, generally, the results are favorable. I had not really sat down to think through my decision making matrix and write it down before.
