Characterizing, modeling, and benchmarking RocksDB key-value workloads at Facebook , Cao et al., Or in the case of key-value stores, what you benchmark. So if you want to design a system that will offer good real-world performance, it’s really useful to have benchmarks that accurately represent real-world workloads.

Because monolithic applications combine database, client-side interfaces, and server-side application elements in a single executable, they’re difficult to understand, even for their own administrators. Use domain-driven design when creating new microservices by separating microservices via their underlying business functions.

Another big jump, but now it was my job to run benchmarks in the lab, and write white papers that explained the new products to the world, as they were launched. I was mostly coding in C, tuning FORTRAN, and when I needed to do a lot of data analysis of benchmark results used the S-PLUS statistics language, that is the predecessor to R.

Partitioning is a way in which a database (MySQL in this case) splits its actual data down into separate tables but still gets treated as a single table by the SQL layer. If you don’t have well-designed and small columns for this composite primary key, it could enlarge all of your secondary indexes. Additionally, MySQL 8.0

Here’s how I worked on it: I subscribed to ChatGPT Plus and used the GPT-4 model in ChatGPT (first the May 12, 2023 version, then the May 24 version) to help me with design and implementation. I liked how ChatGPT helped me work through the tradeoffs of these initial design decisions before diving head-first into coding.
