This allows teams to sidestep much of the cost and time associated with managing hardware, platforms, and operating systems on-premises, while also gaining the flexibility to scale rapidly and efficiently. Every time the trigger executes, the function runs on an available resource. This creates latency when they need to restart.

A lot of people surmise that TTFB is merely time spent on the server, but that is only a small fraction of the true extent of things. The first—and often most surprising for people to learn—thing that I want to draw your attention to is that TTFB counts one whole round trip of latency. But what else is TTFB?

Since your dataset is 100 GB and you have 500 GB of RAM, you can allocate a significant portion of the available memory to the InnoDB buffer pool.
