Self advertising on crappy tech. Running everything on one box is like moving back to mainframe era.

Thread pinning described in article is BS, software will run as process not threads and I don't think you can use custom scheduler for processes in linux kernel. This whole thread manager is just few settings on task scheduler and kernel config options. This type of tinkering with kernel is extremely dangerous.

AWS + Docker and I could be build much more flexible and faster platform.
