The server can see performance benefits by scheduling threads on processors that are in the same pod as the memory that contains the data that's needed.

通过在与包含所需数据的内存处于相同pod中的处理器上调度线程，服务器可以保证性能优势。

The unit of procurement for large installations, however, will almost certainly be the "pod." In that context, adding capacity one server or disk at a time starts to make little sense.

更大规模的安装采购，还只是"pod”, 那就是说，增加服务器性能或增加硬盘，开始变得毫无意义。

NUMA servers will attempt to satisfy memory-allocation requests from within the pod, but will allocate memory from other pods if necessary. An example of a NUMA server is shown in Figure 1 below

NUMA 服务器将试图满足来自 pod 中的内存分配请求，但是如果必要的话，也将从其他 pods 分配内存。

Orders are keyed in at your table and beamed to a central server, from whence the restaurant pod is instructed to retrieve the appropriate ingredients from the freezer and program the microwave.
