Some opinions claim that “Benchmarks are meaningless”, “benchmarks are irrelevant” or “benchmarks are nothing like your real applications” However for others “Benchmarks matter,” as they “account for the processing architecture and speed, memory, storage subsystems and the database engine.”

This guide to HammerDB concepts and architectures is aimed at helping you understand how HammerDB is built and how it can be extended and modified. TCL was designed as a language to be closely tied with C/C++ and at this lower level there is the compiled TCL (tclsh) or TCL/TK (wish) interpreter and supporting libraries.

Another big jump, but now it was my job to run benchmarks in the lab, and write white papers that explained the new products to the world, as they were launched. I was mostly coding in C, tuning FORTRAN, and when I needed to do a lot of data analysis of benchmark results used the S-PLUS statistics language, that is the predecessor to R.

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.

Unlike Spanner, Cosmos DB, Aurora, or other previously cited systems that support synchronous cross-region replication, SLOG’s deterministic architecture ensures that its throughput is unaffected by the presence of synchronous cross-region replicas. In SLOG-HA data is synchronously replicated to one or more nearby regions.

Programmers' insight is that architecture astronauts fail. JavaScript benchmark. I acknowledge that. It is much worse to be a software developer now.

Besides that, the numbers can vary greatly depending on many factors, so our goal here is just to provide a few benchmarks that give some sense of the magnitude of potential improvements. Recall the basic equation for enterprise profit: where Q is quantity sold, P is price, V denotes variable costs, and C denotes fixed costs.
