If we had an ID for each streaming session then distributed tracing could easily reconstruct session failure by providing service topology, retry and error tags, and latency measurements for all service calls. Using simple lookup indices in Cassandra gives us the ability to maintain acceptable read latencies while doing heavy writes.

It is a good idea to run sysbench or another benchmark tool to determine your storage throughput. Note that this requires either ROW or MIXED binlog format.

This is a complex topic, but to borrow from a recent post , web performance expands access to information and services by reducing latency and variance across interactions in a session, with a particular focus on the tail of the distribution (P75+). Consistent performance matters just as much as low average latency.

Using a global ASP as a benchmark can further mislead thanks to the distorting effect of ultra-high-end prices rising while shipment volumes stagnate.
