Now that Database-as-a-service (DBaaS) is in high demand, there are multiple questions regarding AWS services that cannot always be answered easily: When should I use Aurora and when should I use RDS MySQL ? Amazon Aurora is a proprietary, cloud-native, fully managed relational database service developed by Amazon Web Services (AWS).

The swap issue is explained in the excellent article by Jeremy Cole at the Swap Insanity and NUMA Architecture.

The report focuses on MySQL, but it is valid for MongoDB as well.

MongoDB is a non-relational document database that provides support for JSON-like storage. Indexing can help to speed up read queries, but it comes with an extra cost of storage, and they will slow down write operations. Having indexes that will never be used is a waste of storage and will slow down write operations.
