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.

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. Microservices applications comprise independent services that teams develop, deploy, and maintain separately.

Local development is harder. As such, providing the same environment during local development can be complicated. When using Lambda, you might soon end up using more serverless offerings, like databases, which makes emulating the same environment locally even harder. Also, “serverless” means more than just Lambda functions.

One of the common ways to classify database workloads is whether it is “read intensive” or “write intensive”. Because recognizing if the workload is read intensive or write intensive will impact your hardware choices, database configuration as well as what techniques you can apply for performance optimization and scalability.
