If we do that naively though, we’re going to end up with a lot of universes to store and maintain and the storage requirements alone will be prohibitive. Specifically, scalable, parallel streaming dataflow computing systems now support partially-stateful and dynamically-changing dataflows. It runs to about 2,000 lines of Rust.

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 ? These may be performance, high availability, operational cost, management, capacity planning, scalability, security, monitoring, etc.

Storage is a critical aspect to consider when working with cloud workloads. High availability storage options within the context of cloud computing involve highly adaptable storage solutions specifically designed for storing vast amounts of data while providing easy access to it. This also aids scalability down the line.
