Self-managed databases come with their own set of expenses that must be factored in – managing a database requires time and effort which often includes backup storage, patching software upgrades as well as other typical administration tasks. Advantages of DBaaS Database management with DBaaS is like being on a luxury cruise.

Why RPC is “faster” It’s tempting to simply write a micro-benchmark test where we issue 1000 requests to a server over HTTP and then repeat the same test with asynchronous messages. If you did such a benchmark, here’s an incomplete picture you might end up with: Graph of microbenchmark showing RPC is faster than messaging.

When planning your database HA architecture, the size of your company is a great place to start to assess your needs.

As is also the case this limitation is at the database level (especially the storage engine) rather than the hardware level.
