Redis vs Memcached in 2024

Scalegrid

MARCH 28, 2024

Introduction Caching serves a dual purpose in web development – speeding up client requests and reducing server load. With these goals in mind, two in-memory data stores, Redis and Memcached, have emerged as the top contenders. This mechanism results in fast data access and effective memory utilization.

What is container orchestration?

Dynatrace

MARCH 24, 2023

Container technology enables organizations to efficiently develop cloud-native applications or to modernize legacy applications to take advantage of cloud services. Apache Mesos with the Marathon DC/OS is popular for large-scale production clusters running existing workloads on big data systems, such as Hadoop, Kafka, and Spark.

What is ITOps? Why IT operations is more crucial than ever in a multicloud world

Dynatrace

DECEMBER 15, 2022

As more organizations adopt cloud-native technologies, traditional approaches to IT operations have been evolving. Complex cloud computing environments are increasingly replacing traditional data centers. In fact, Gartner estimates that 80% of enterprises will shut down their on-premises data centers by 2025. So, what is ITOps?

Why MySQL Could Be Slow With Large Tables

Percona

JANUARY 19, 2023

While the technologies have evolved and matured enough, there are still some people thinking that MySQL is only for small projects or that it can’t perform well with large tables. It can help us to save costs on storage and backup times. This can help to split large data sets into smaller ones stored in multiple servers.
