How to Assess MySQL Performance

HammerDB

Regardless of whether the computing platform to be evaluated is on-prem, containerized, virtualized, or in the cloud, it is crucial to consider several essential factors. As database performance is heavily influenced by the performance of storage, network, memory, and processors, we must understand the upper limit of these key components.

A MyRocks Use Case

Percona

I wrote this post on MyRocks because I believe it is the most interesting new MySQL storage engine to have appeared over the last few years. The use case is the TPC-C benchmark but executed not on a high-end server but on a lower-spec virtual machine that is I/O limited like for example, with AWS EBS volumes. Conclusion.

HammerDB v4.0 New Features Pt1: TPROC-C & TPROC-H

HammerDB

The HammerDB TPROC-C workload by design intended as CPU and memory intensive workload derived from TPC-C – so that we get to benchmark at maximum CPU performance at a much smaller database footprint. more transactions than system B in the fully audited benchmark then the HammerDB result was also 1.5X I.e. if system A generated 1.5X

CheriABI: enforcing valid pointer provenance and minimizing pointer privilege in the POSIX C run-time environment

The Morning Paper

Last week we saw the benefits of rethinking memory and pointer models at the hardware level when it came to object storage and compression ( Zippads ). The process model, user-kernel interactions, dynamic linking, and memory management concerns are all in scope, and the protection spans the OS/DBMS boundary. ASPLOS’19.

Kubernetes for Big Data Workloads

Abhishek Tiwari

In 2018, a widespread adaptation of Kubernetes for big data processing is anitcipated. Containerized data workloads running on Kubernetes offer several advantages over traditional virtual machine/bare metal based data workloads including but not limited to. faster access to external storage and data locality (I/O, bandwidth).

What Adrian Did Next?—?Part 2?—?Sun Microsystems

Adrian Cockcroft

Another big jump, but now it was my job to run benchmarks in the lab, and write white papers that explained the new products to the world, as they were launched. I was mostly coding in C, tuning FORTRAN, and when I needed to do a lot of data analysis of benchmark results used the S-PLUS statistics language, that is the predecessor to R.

Virtual consensus in Delos

The Morning Paper

Virtual consensus in Delos , Balakrishnan et al. If you think of this a bit like mapping memory addresses to data in memory, then another parallel comes to mind: the virtual address space. We propose the novel abstraction of a virtual shared log (or VirtualLog). Facebook, Inc. ), OSDI’2020. What does the VirtualLog give us?
