These updates are designed to keep databases running at peak performance and simplify database operations. 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.

To illustrate this, I ran the Sysbench-TPCC synthetic benchmark against two different GCP instances running a freshly installed Percona Server for MySQL version 8.0.31 That’s a heritage of the LAMP model when the same server would host both the database and the web server.

Unfortunately, container security is much more difficult to achieve than security for more traditional compute platforms, such as virtual machines or bare metal hosts. Many good security tools provide that function, and benchmarks from the Center for Internet Security (CIS) are clear and prescriptive. Why is container security tricky?

A Cassandra database cluster had switched to Ubuntu and noticed write latency increased by over 30%. CLI tools The Cassandra systems were EC2 virtual machine (Xen) instances. top(1) showed that only the Cassandra database was consuming CPU. A quick check of basic performance statistics showed over 30% higher CPU consumption.

Apple forces developers of competing browsers to use their engine for all browsers on iOS , restricting their ability to deliver a better version of the web platform. They are, pound for pound, some of the best engine developers globally and genuinely want good things for the web. With each team, benchmarks lost are understood as bugs.

Similarly for this guide MySQL can be swapped for a mySQL based databases such as MariaDB. As is also the case this limitation is at the database level (especially the storage engine) rather than the hardware level. InnoDB is the storage engine that will deliver the best OLTP throughput and should be chosen for this test. .
