This article describes the Coherent Accelerator Processor Interface (CAPI) Flash support on IBM AIX. CAPI technology has been used on AIX to accelerate I/O operations to IBM Flash storage. AIX CAPI Flash driver stack has been optimized into a monolithic driver model which further reduced the I/O code path length. CAPI Flash technology provides a superior performance advantage in terms of IOPS per processor when compared to the traditional Fibre Channel I/O. We also describe at a high level how a user can use CAPI-based flash devices on AIX.

The oldest known way to process data in Python is building up data in lists, dictionaries and other such data structures. Though such techniques work well in many cases, they cause major problems when dealing with large quantities of data. It's easy to find that your code is running painfully slowly or running out of memory. Generators and iterators help address this problem. These techniques have been around in Python for a while but are not well understood. Used properly, they can bring big data tasks down to size so that they don't require a huge hardware investment to complete.

Python's motto has always been "Batteries included," to highlight its extensive standard library. There are many well-kept secrets among the standard modules, including itertools, which is less well known in part because iterators and generators are less well known. This is a shame because the routines in itertools and related modules such as functools and operators can save developers many hours in developing big data operators. Learn by copious examples how to use itertools to address the most common MapReduce-style data science tasks.
