IT professionals are familiar with scoping the size of VMs with regards to vCPU, memory, and storage capacity. The various types are: General purpose – Balanced CPU-to-memory ratio, small to medium databases. Memory optimized – High memory-to-CPU ratio, relational database servers, medium to large caches, and in-memory analytics.

Creating a HCI benchmark to simulate multi-tennent workloads. It is very common to have large resource-hungry databases separated across nodes using anti-affinity rules. As with traditional storage, applications are writing to a shared storage environment which is necessary to support VM movement.

One of the common ways to classify database workloads is whether it is “read intensive” or “write intensive”. Because recognizing if the workload is read intensive or write intensive will impact your hardware choices, database configuration as well as what techniques you can apply for performance optimization and scalability.

Similarly for this guide MySQL can be swapped for a mySQL based databases such as MariaDB. As is also the case this limitation is at the database level (especially the storage engine) rather than the hardware level. InnoDB is the storage engine that will deliver the best OLTP throughput and should be chosen for this test. .

A then-representative $200USD device had 4-8 slow (in-order, low-cache) cores, ~2GiB of RAM, and relatively slow MLC NAND flash storage. Using a global ASP as a benchmark can further mislead thanks to the distorting effect of ultra-high-end prices rising while shipment volumes stagnate. The Moto G4 , for example.

Study common complaints coming into customer service and sales team, study analytics for high bounce rates and conversion drops. Run performance experiments and measure outcomes — both on mobile and on desktop (for example, with Google Analytics ). Yet often, analytics alone doesn’t provide a complete picture.

It is limited by the disk space; it can’t expand storage elastically; it chokes if you run few I/O intensive processes or try collaborating with 100 other users. Over time, costs for S3 and GCS became reasonable and with Egnyte’s storage plugin architecture, our customers can now bring in any storage backend of their choice.
