Mechanisms¶
- Tenant or Segment Queue
- Its failure mode is the noisy neighbor re-admitted through soft isolation — where a spike in one tenant's lane leaks into others because the boundary was porous — and, more seriously, segmentation as disguised discrimination, where identity lanes allocate faster service by status with no contractual basis.
This sourceDefines the noisy-neighbor problem as one tenant’s shared-resource use degrading other tenants’ performance, including spikes that exhaust capacity and cause cross-tenant failures.

Verification¶
Does it exist? Not checked yet. This entry carries no identifier to resolve. It was extracted from the citation as written in the article, normalized, and deduplicated against the rest of the registry.
Does it back the claim? Not recorded. The single citation of this work carries no recorded support check.
Support is checked per citation rather than per work — the same source can be cited soundly in one article and wrongly in another. Per-citation recording began recently, so a citation with no recorded check is a gap in the record rather than evidence it went unchecked.
