For busy site reliability engineers, ensuring system reliability, scalability, and overall health is an imperative that’s getting harder to achieve in ever-expanding, cloud-native, container-based environments. But often, we use additional services and solutions within our environment for backups, storage, networking, and more.

JUNE 21, 2017

DynamoDB has come a long way in the 5 years since we announced its availability in January 2012. Based on this experience and learning, we built DynamoDB to be a fast, highly scalable NoSQL database to meet the needs of Internet-scale applications. DynamoDB was the first service at AWS to use SSD storage.

SEPTEMBER 26, 2016

When we released Always On Availability Groups in SQL Server 2012 as a new and powerful way to achieve high availability, hardware environments included NUMA machines with low-end multi-core processors and SATA and SAN drives for storage (some SSDs). These results are possible for anyone given a scalable hardware solution.

For example, the IMDG must be able to efficiently create millions of objects in each server to make use of its huge storage capacity. In addition to looking at performance differences, we also want to compare ScaleOut StateServer (SOSS) to AppFabric on qualitative measures, such as features, ease of installation, and management.

However, ClickHouse is super efficient for timeseries and provides “sharding” out of the box (scalability beyond one node). With the latest ClickHouse version, all of these features are available, but some of them may not perform fast enough. So can we use it as our main datastore? Deleting messages. Text search.
