For example, memory-resident databases without persistent disks, such as Redis cluster setups or Apache Spark installations, rely on stand-alone machines. To traditional relational databases, where rollbacks are less likely to cause data loss, MongoDB differs significantly.

The new AWS Asia Pacific (Hong Kong) Region will have three Availability Zones and be ready for customers for use in 2018. As a result, we have opened 43 Availability Zones across 16 AWS Regions worldwide. This enables customers to serve content to their end users with low latency, giving them the best application experience.

The mean and percentile measurements hide this structure, but the rest of this post will show how the structure can be measured and analyzed so that you can figure out a useful model of your system, understand what is driving the long tail of latencies and come up with better SLAs and measures of capacity.

Recently one of our teams was investigating a log reader latency issue. We pay a lot of attention to latency here, along with any long-running transactions, because of downstream impact to technologies that use the log reader – like Availability Groups and transactional replication.

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). Direct seeding of new database replicas. See more in this blog post.

Some of the built-in features ( wal_compression ) have been there since 2016, and almost all backup tools do the WAL compression before taking it to the backup repository. Such “torn pages” are corruptions from the database point of view. Individual processes generate WAL records, and latency is very crucial for transactions.

This is a complex topic, but to borrow from a recent post , web performance expands access to information and services by reducing latency and variance across interactions in a session, with a particular focus on the tail of the distribution (P75+). Consistent performance matters just as much as low average latency.
