The Odessy of Xen, Ubuntu and the Intel NUC6i5SYK in the month of February 2016

Created: 26.02.2016

Preamble

Let us never forget that most modern hardware is basically a cheap or sometimes expensive coaster without software.

Virtualization and the NUC

For development the new NUC6i5SYK is seemingly great. 32GB of RAM, 2 cores and 2 "hyper threads". This NUC also features an NVMe port running at x4 over PCIe 3.0. At 10 VM's the NUC should be able to support about 150 MB/s (theoretically) of disk traffic per VM, this is usually the thing that will prevent a VM server from performing well. For a Micro Services type architecture this is an ideal environment for development.
