Building the Software Infrastructure of Tomorrow

About this audiobook
Software infrastructure is the invisible middle of computing, the system software beneath every application and above every chip, and this book descends into it and stays: the operating systems, memory managers, file systems, network stacks, databases, and virtual machines that turn one physical machine into many useful ones, described not as plumbing but as a set of arguments, every abstraction an argument about what should be hidden and what should be paid for. The kernel, the machine's resident government: the two-mode border, the system call's toll, the founding lie of the private machine, the interrupt's reflexes, the boot that must be boring, and the patch that eventually requires a reboot. The process, a manufactured life: the state map, the scheduler's bluff, the fork-and-replace grammar, the signal postcards, the descriptor inventory, the limits, the wait-channel census, and the society with its genealogy and estates.
