When a MongoDB rollback happens, it can cause trouble to your data integrity and system consistency. For example, memory-resident databases without persistent disks, such as Redis cluster setups or Apache Spark installations, rely on stand-alone machines.

There is no way to model how much more traffic you can send to that system before it exceeds it’s SLA. This is unfortunate, because we’d really like to be able to build systems that have an SLA that we can share with the consumers of our interfaces, and be able to measure how well we are doing.

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 enables customers to serve content to their end users with low latency, giving them the best application experience. In 2008, AWS opened a point of presence (PoP) in Hong Kong to enable customers to serve content to their end users with low latency. Since then, AWS has added two more PoPs in Hong Kong, the latest in 2016.

SQL Performance

The system table sys.sysprocesses was replaced way back in SQL Server 2005 by a set of dynamic management views (DMVs), most notably sys.dm_exec_requests , sys.dm_exec_sessions , and sys.dm_exec_connections. We recommend that you use the current SQL Server system views instead. Why this is a problem.

Back in 2016, I gave a talk outlining the causes and effects of the terrible performance of web apps built using popular tools on the fastest-growing device segment: low-end to mid-range Android phones. In 2016, Jio swept over the subcontinent like a monsoon dropping a torrent of 4G infrastructure and free data rather than rain.

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+). Only teams that master their systems can make intentional trade-offs.
