An open-source benchmark suite for microservices and their hardware-software implications for cloud & edge systems Gan et al., Systems built with lots of microservices have different operational characteristics to those built from a small number of monoliths, we’d like to study and better understand those differences.

Mobiles have different models, screen resolutions, operating systems, network types, hardware configurations, etc. Also, how to test the hardware of the mobile phone itself, is it supporting all the software as it should? Let us have a look at the most popular types of mobile testing for applications and hardware.

On high-performance multi-core systems all the supported databases can return performance in the many millions of transactions per minute. For HammerDB both TPROC-C and TPROC-H run all of their workloads on the database being tested in SQL. The following is an example from TPROC-C from SQL Server. and the following from TPROC-H.

Depending on the configuration, one can tune a hardware RAID for either performance or redundancy. Now let’s stretch our imagination and consider a second method of high availability, ala Citus. The best way to describe the Citus way of doing things is to reflect how data is managed by a disk RAID array. citus_columnar | 11.1-1

This method is often called 0-RTT (although, of course, it still takes one round trip for the HTTP response data to start arriving). For example, for streams A, B, and C, we might see a packet sequence of ABCABCABCABCABCABCABCABC , where we change the active stream in each packet (let’s call this round-robin). As for TLS 1.3,
