The Speed of Time

Brendan Gregg

A Cassandra database cluster had switched to Ubuntu and noticed write latency increased by over 30%. Since instances of both CentOS and Ubuntu were running in parallel, I could collect flame graphs at the same time (same time-of-day traffic mix) and compare them side by side. Microbenchmark os::javaTimeMillis() on both systems.

Why you should benchmark your database using stored procedures

HammerDB

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. Additionally, reviewing official TPC-C full disclosure reports highlighted that all vendors also use stored procedures.

A Management Maturity Model for Performance

Alex Russell

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.

Probabilistic Data Structures for Web Analytics and Data Mining

Highly Scalable

This approach often leads to heavyweight high-latency analytical processes and poor applicability to realtime use cases. There is a system that monitors traffic and counts unique visitors for different criteria (visited site, geography, etc.) A group of several such sketches can be used to process range query. Case Study. Case Study.

MongoDB Database Backup: Best Practices & Expert Tips

Percona

Especially if going into or out of storage types that may throttle bandwidth/network traffic. Storage destination: Backups stored on the same disk as the database can impact read and write operations, while backups stored on a remote server can increase network traffic and cause latency.
