1. Optimizing Recommendation Systems with JDK’s Vector API
Published: 2026-03-03 01:36
Summary:
When we looked at CPU profiles for this service, one feature kept standing out: video serendipity scoring — the logic that answers a simple question:“How different is this new title from what you’ve been watching so far?”This single feature was consuming about 7.5% of total CPU on each node running the service More crucially for us, it’s pure Java: no native dependencies, no JNI transitions, and a development model that looks like normal Java code rather than platform-specific assembly or intrinsics.This was a particularly good match for our workload because we had already moved embeddings into flat, contiguous double[] buffers, and the hot loop was dominated by large numbers of dot products So we designed the fallback behavior explicitly: At startup, we detect Vector API support and use the SIMD batched matmul when available; otherwise we fall back to an optimized scalar path, with single-video requests continuing to use the per-item implementation.That gives us a clean operational story: services can opt in to the Vector API for maximum performance, but the system remains safe and predictable without it.Results in Production:With the full design in place with batching, flat buffers, ThreadLocal reuse, and the Vector API, we ran canaries that run production traffic
2. Mount Mayhem at Netflix: Scaling Containers on Modern CPUs
Published: 2026-02-28 22:55
Summary:
Examining the mount table made it clear that these mounts were related to container creation.The affected nodes were almost all r5.metal instances, and were starting applications whose container image contained many layers (50+).ChallengeMount Lock ContentionThe flamegraph in Figure 1 clearly shows where containerd spent its time Almost all of the time is spent trying to grab a kernel-level lock as part of the various mount-related activities when assembling the container’s root filesystem!Figure 1: Flamegraph depicting lock contentionLooking closer, containerd executes the following calls for each layer if using user namespaces:open_tree() to get a reference to the layer / directorymount_setattr() to set the idmap to match the container’s user range, shifting the ownership so this container can access the filesmove_mount() to create a bind mount on the host with this new idmap appliedThese bind mounts are owned by the container’s user range and are then used as the lowerdirs to create the overlayfs-based rootfs for the container The kernel VFS has various global locks related to the mount table, and each of these mounts requires taking that lock as we can see in the top of the flamegraph
3. MediaFM: The Multimodal AI Foundation for Media Understanding at Netflix
Published: 2026-02-23 18:24
Summary:
Consisting of tens of millions of individual shots across multiple titles, our diverse yet entertainment-specific dataset provides the perfect foundation to train multimodal media understanding models that enable many capabilities across the company such as ads relevancy, clip popularity prediction, and clip tagging.For these reasons, we developed the Netflix Media Foundational Model (MediaFM), our new, in-house, multimodal content embedding model For each shot, we generate three distinct embeddings from its core modalities:Video: an internal model called SeqCLIP (a CLIP-style model fine-tuned on video retrieval datasets) is used to embed frames sampled at uniform intervals from segmented shotsAudio: the audio samples from the same shots are embedded using Meta FAIR’s wav2vec2Timed Text: OpenAI’s text-embedding-3-large model is used to encode the corresponding timed text (e.g., closed captions, audio descriptions, or subtitles) for each shotFor each shot, the three embeddings² are concatenated and unit-normed to form a single 2304-dimensional fused embedding vector This avoids the architectural fragility of fine-tuning, allowing us to enhance our existing embedding-based workflows with new modalities more flexibly.All of our data has audio and video; we zero-pad for missing timed text data, which is relatively likely to occur (e.g., in shots without dialogue).The title-level tasks couldn’t be evaluated with the VertexAI MM and Marengo embedding models as the videos exceed the length limit set by the APIs.AcknowledgementsWe would like to thank Matt Thanabalan and Chaitanya Ekanadham for their contributions to this work.MediaFM: The Multimodal AI Foundation for Media Understanding at Netflix was originally published in Netflix TechBlog on Medium, where people are continuing the conversation by highlighting and responding to this story.
