Key Performance Measurements for App Servers: Cause, Impact, and Resolution

DZone

Below are some of the key metrics that need to be monitored during performance testing: CPU utilization. Cache hit ratio. Let's take a look at some of the causes of negative impacts on performance testing and some quick resolutions that will help smooth everything out. Heap memory utilization. Application log.

An approach to index tuning – Part 2

SQL Performance

His version can be used for the plan cache – the only challenge there is the information is transient, so you may not capture every query that uses a particular index. value ( '(@Database) [1 ]' , 'varchar(128)' ) AS DatabaseName , obj. value ( '(@StatementText) [1 ]' , 'varchar(max)' ) AS SQL_Text , obj. nodes ( '.

Impact of Data locality on DB workloads.

n0derunner

Many different queries are executing in parallel, some hitting RAM cache, some hitting storage. The aim of the experiment was to see how data-locality might affect a running database workload, not to generate the maximum TPS. The Postgres DB is totally un-tuned and contains purely default settings. appeared first on n0derunner.

AWS EKS Monitoring as a Self-Service with Dynatrace

Dynatrace

REDIS for caching. Once Dynatrace OneAgent is monitoring the k8s cluster it gives you code-level visibility into every container that gets deployed including visibility into each incoming service call, executed database queries, invoked external services, written logs as well as handled and unhandled exceptions. #1 3 Log Analytics.

PostgreSQL Connection Pooling: Part 4 – PgBouncer vs. Pgpool-II

Scalegrid

PgBouncer defines one pool per user+database combination. A client benefits from a pooled connection only if it connects to a child which has previously served a connection for this database+user combination. PgBouncer allows limiting connections per-pool, per-database, per-user or per-client. Performance Testing.

HCI Performance testing made easy (Part 3)

n0derunner

It is very common to have large resource-hungry databases separated across nodes using anti-affinity rules. The “Data” disks are doing both reads (from DB cache misses) and writes committed transactions. The idea here is to simulate a large database doing a lot of reads across a large workingset size.

KPTI/KAISER Meltdown Initial Performance Regressions

Brendan Gregg

This overhead can be reduced by A) pcid, fully available in Linux 4.14, and B) Huge pages. - **Cache access pattern**: the overheads are exacerbated by certain access patterns that switch from caching well to caching a little less well. Also microbenchmarks, which often stress-test the system, will suffer the largest losses.
