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 ? What we should really compare is the MySQL and Aurora database engines provided by Amazon RDS. How do I choose which one to use?

Simply put, it’s the set of computational tasks that cloud systems perform, such as hosting databases, enabling collaboration tools, or running compute-intensive algorithms. This article analyzes cloud workloads, delving into their forms, functions, and how they influence the cost and efficiency of your cloud infrastructure.

Some will claim that any type of RPC communication ends up being faster (meaning it has lower latency) than any equivalent invocation using asynchronous messaging. 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. Messaging doesn’t do that.

These AMD EPYC processors have a number of advantages for SQL Server workloads, as I will explain in this article. Both of these Intel processors are special bespoke models that are not in the Intel ARK database. I wrote about using CPU-Z to benchmark the Intel Xeon E5-2673 v3 processor in an Azure VM in this article.

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. Sadly, data on latency is harder to get, even from Google's perch, so progress there is somewhat more difficult to judge. Today, either method returns a similar answer.

Estimated Input Latency tells us if we are hitting that threshold, and ideally, it should be below 50ms. Designed for the modern web, it responds to actual congestion, rather than packet loss like TCP does, it is significantly faster , with higher throughput and lower latency — and the algorithm works differently.
