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 ? Amazon Aurora is a proprietary, cloud-native, fully managed relational database service developed by Amazon Web Services (AWS).

Each cloud-native evolution is about using the hardware more efficiently. We would still be building higher and higher on top of VMs because that's where platform innovation would have stopped evolving. We have several players like Cloudflare innovating to become alternative lower-cost cloud providers. So why bother innovating?

Challenges of adopting OpenTelemetry The first challenge is that OpenTelemetry only gathers and processes data—it has no back end, no storage, and no analytics. In most cases, the backend customers use for OpenTelemetry is either not capable of storing more than 1-5% of their traces, or it is not cost efficient to do so,” Kopp says.
