My personal opinion is that I don't see a widespread need for more capacity given horizontal scaling and servers that can already exceed 1 Tbyte of DRAM; bandwidth is also helpful, but I'd be concerned about the increased latency for adding a hop to more memory.

For example, the IMDG must be able to efficiently create millions of objects in each server to make use of its huge storage capacity. Given all this, we thought it would be a good opportunity to see how we are doing relative to the competition, and in particular, relative to Microsoft’s AppFabric caching for Windows on-premise servers.

A then-representative $200USD device had 4-8 slow (in-order, low-cache) cores, ~2GiB of RAM, and relatively slow MLC NAND flash storage. The cheapest (high volume) Androids perform like 2012/2013 iPhones, respectively. low-end Androids have finally caught up to the iPhone 5 from 2012. The Moto G4 , for example.

AWS today announced a substantial price drop from March 1, 2012 for many of the Amazon EC2, Amazon RDS, and Amazon ElastiCache instances types around the world. Amazon ElastiCache customers will see their prices drop by up to 10%, depending on their cache node types. Comments ().

In this blog, we’ll provide a comparison between MariaDB vs. MySQL (including Percona Server for MySQL ). Introduction: MariaDB vs. MySQL The goal of this blog post is to evaluate, at a higher level, MariaDB vs. MySQL vs. Percona Server for MySQL side-by-side to better inform the decision making process.

JUNE 3, 2016

Internally DBCC CHECK* uses a page scanning coordinator design (MultiObjectScanner.) SQL Server 2016 changes the internal design to (CheckScanner), applying no lock semantics and a design similar to those used with In-Memory Optimized (Hekaton) objects, allowing DBCC operations to scale far better than previous releases.
