Linux OS Tuning for MySQL Database Performance. In this post we will review the most important Linux settings to adjust for performance tuning and optimization of a MySQL database server. We’ll note how some of the Linux parameter settings used OS tuning may vary according to different system types: physical, virtual or cloud.

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.

A co-worker introduced me to Craig Hanson and Pat Crain's performance mantras, which neatly summarize much of what we do in performance analysis and tuning. These have inspired me to summarize another performance activity: evaluating benchmark accuracy. If the benchmark reported 20k ops/sec, you should ask: why not 40k ops/sec?
