Traditional analytics and AI systems rely on statistical models to correlate events with possible causes. While this approach can be effective if the model is trained with a large amount of data, even in the best-case scenarios, it amounts to an informed guess, rather than a certainty. That’s where causal AI can help. Causal AI is a different approach that goes beyond event correlations to understand the underlying reasons for trends and patterns.

ProxySQL is a high-performance SQL proxy that runs as a daemon watched by a monitoring process. The process monitors the daemon and restarts it in case of a crash to minimize downtime. The daemon accepts incoming traffic from MySQL clients and forwards it to backend MySQL servers. The proxy is designed to run continuously without needing to be restarted.

A common query from users revolves around the precise measurement of latency in APISIX. When utilizing APISIX, how should one address unusually high latency? In reality, discussions on latency measurement are centered around the performance and response time of API requests. Understanding these aspects is crucial for ensuring efficient API services, especially in B2B software where clients demand high API availability and performance.

Seagull taking off — Picture by Adrian When the company stops growing, when the founder moves on, when HR is calling the shots, when the executives care more about real estate than products… It’s time to leave, and find a new company to work for. I joined AWS about seven years ago, when it was growing fast, there was headcount and flexibility in hiring, and Amazon was famously cheap about the office space it occupied.

However, this initial installation and configuration is only the beginning. Once the Java server is in use, it must be maintained and updated. Otherwise, critical bugs could affect its operation, or a security vulnerability might expose it to bad actors.

The Publish/Subscribe (Pub/Sub) pattern is a widely-used software architecture paradigm, particularly relevant in the design of distributed, messaging-driven systems. The communication framework is decoupled, scalable, and dynamic, making it useful for addressing complex software requirements in modern application development. At its core, the Pub/Sub pattern is about decoupling the message producer (publisher) from the message consumer (subscriber).

TL&DR : Depending on the workload, the thread pool plugin can cause serious performance drops. This post was motivated by two recent cases I’ve worked with. Two setups running in cluster mode: one in MariaDB+Galera and one with Percona XtraDB Cluster (Percona Server+Galera). In both cases, the clusters had the thread pool plugin enabled and were serving requests coming from ProxySQL.

Managing database servers involves different aspects, among which security is critical. We know that we should always grant the minimal required permissions to the different user accounts in the database, as having a user with high-level permission can lead to unexpected results, such as having an index drop affecting the system performance or even more disastrous events such as having a table or a database dropped causing the system to crash and possible data loss.

What Is Sharding? Sharding, a database architecture pattern, involves partitioning a database into smaller, faster, more manageable parts called shards. Each shard is a distinct database, and collectively, these shards make up the entire database. Sharding is particularly useful for managing large-scale databases, offering significant improvements in performance, maintainability, and scalability.
