When you search for specific data within a database table, an index allows the database engine to quickly pinpoint the relevant rows, significantly reducing the time it takes to retrieve information. You could also verify with “SHOW ENGINE INNODB STATUS;” via the MySQL CLI to assist in calculating a good InnoDB log file size.

Google has a pretty tight grip on the tech industry: it makes by far the most popular browser with the best DevTools, and the most popular search engine, which means that web developers spend most of their time in Chrome, most of their visitors are in Chrome, and a lot of their search traffic will be coming from Google.

RUM, however, has some limitations, including the following: RUM requires traffic to be useful. In some cases, you will lack benchmarking capabilities. Because RUM relies on user-generated traffic, it’s hard to indicate persistent issues across the board. Use data from one engine to facilitate testing for the other.

For retail organizations, peak traffic can be a mixed blessing. While high-volume traffic often boosts sales, it can also compromise uptimes. Five-nines availability has long been the goal of site reliability engineers (SREs) to provide system availability that is “always on.” But is five nines availability attainable?

Load balancing : Traffic is distributed across multiple servers to prevent any one component from becoming overloaded. Load balancers can detect when a component is not responding and put traffic redirection in motion. If a server fails, the load balancer redirects traffic to a replicated server in another cluster.
