But as companies grow and see more demand for their databases, we need to ensure that PMM also remains scalable so you don’t need to worry about its performance while tending to the rest of your environment. PMM2 uses VictoriaMetrics (VM) as its metrics storage engine. We have tested PMM version 2.33.0

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.

This post complements the previous best practice guides this time with the focus on MySQL and MariaDB and achieving top levels of performance with the HammerDB MySQL TPC-C test. As is also the case this limitation is at the database level (especially the storage engine) rather than the hardware level.

Otherwise, the storage engine does a scatter-gather and queries ALL partitions in a UNION that is not concurrent. This method distributes data evenly across partitions to achieve balanced storage and optimal query performance. You want to ensure that table lookups go to the correct partition or group of partitions.
