Why you should benchmark your database using stored procedures

HammerDB

HammerDB uses stored procedures to achieve maximum throughput when benchmarking your database. HammerDB has always used stored procedures as a design decision because the original benchmark was implemented as close as possible to the example workload in the TPC-C specification that uses stored procedures.

10 tips for migrating from monolith to microservices

Dynatrace

Unsurprisingly, organizations are breaking away from monolithic architectures and moving toward event-driven microservices. Use SLAs, SLOs, and SLIs as performance benchmarks for newly migrated microservices. However, the move to microservices comes with its own challenges and complexities.

Spying on the floating point behavior of existing, unmodified scientific applications

The Morning Paper

Furthermore, as hardware and compiler optimisations rapidly evolve, it is challenging even for a knowledgeable developer to keep up. The study is conducted using a suite of 7 real-world popular scientific applications, and two well-established benchmark suites: Miniaero solves the compressible Navier-Stokes equation. The applications.

The Return of the Frame Pointers

Brendan Gregg

It was also a virtual machine that lacked low-level hardware profiling capabilities, so I wasn't able to do cycle analysis to confirm that the 10% was entirely frame pointer-based. AET (Archetectural Event Trace) : Another Intel thing. The actual overhead depends on your workload. Others have reported around 1% and around 2%.

Five-nines availability: Always-on infrastructure delivers system availability during the holidays’ peak loads

Dynatrace

Five-nines availability: The ultimate benchmark of system availability. Traditionally, teams achieve this high level of uptime using a combination of high-capacity hardware, system redundancy, and failover models. But is five nines availability attainable? Each decimal point closer to 100 equals higher uptime.

Impact of Querying Table Information From information_schema

Percona

Disclaimer : This blog post is meant to show a less-known problem but is not meant to be a serious benchmark. The percentage in degradation will vary depending on many factors {hardware, workload, number of tables, configuration, etc.}. Setup The setup consists of creating 10K tables with sysbench and adding 20 FKs to 20 tables.
