> Datacenters run at roughly 30% to 40% effective utilisation
I wonder what is stopping datacenters from passing this benefit to customers by launching better tuned plans. For example, t series EC2 instances on AWS.
Isn’t the fact that you just referenced it indicate that they do?
I feel like it’s probably just complexity.
Different workloads benefit from specific types of optimisations.
