Who is this for?

This is an introductory topic for developers and performance engineers who are interested in understanding how network interrupt patterns can impact performance on cloud servers.

What will you learn?

Upon completion of this Learning Path, you will be able to:

• Analyze the current interrupt request (IRQ) layout on an Arm Linux system
• Experiment with different interrupt options and patterns to improve performance
• Configure optimal IRQ distribution strategies for your workload
• Implement persistent IRQ management solutions

Prerequisites

Before starting, you will need the following:

• An Arm computer running Linux
• Some familiarity with the Linux command line
