Thank you, yes I’m am aware of the HW CPU forth.
Drawing from my own experiential intuition, there’s a significant cost overhead—roughly 30% on hardware (CPU and Memory)—attributable to utilizing OSs that were originally architected to facilitate human interaction and inherently embody extensive code bases. This scenario is further “complexified” when we overlay multiple OS layers (like VM’s or containers) libraries, and additional software to execute applications. Considering the financials, an average server incurs an expenditure of 15-20K, with an additional 20K annually on software to execute applications, and another 10K annually to account for footprint costs. The potential savings here are substantial—around 10K a year per server.
Scaling this to a substantial enterprise operating, for instance, 500 servers, the financial implication is pronounced. The Return on Investment (ROI) is likely even more compelling, considering the accumulated savings in various other domains, and this holds true even if the performance efficiency achieved is merely on par with current systems.
