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. There are many times we get asked why some cloud instance performed poorly for their database application and almost always turned out to be some configuration error.

To make data count and to ensure cloud computing is unabated, companies and organizations must have highly available databases. Components of high availability infrastructure Multiple copies of data Data redundancy helps prevent data loss due to hardware or software failures. Redundancy is also critical for disaster recovery.

Key areas include: Configuration parameter tuning : This tuning involves altering variables such as memory allocation, disk I/O settings, and concurrent connections based on specific hardware and requirements. This not only results in cost savings by minimizing hardware requirements but also has the potential to decrease cloud expenses.

With the arrival of new cloud-native tools and platform, ETL is becoming obsolete. More importantly, UDM utilizes a single storage backend with benefits of multiple storage systems which avoids moving data across systems hence data duplication, and data consistency issues. Leveraging the recent hardware advances.

It is limited by the disk space; it can’t expand storage elastically; it chokes if you run few I/O intensive processes or try collaborating with 100 other users. Our only option was to roll up our sleeves and build basic cloud file system components such as object store ourselves. Edge caching. Migration to cloud.
