In this video I migrate a Postgres DB running PGbench benchmark. As the DB continues to run on the new host – the Nutanix storage detects the access patterns and “localizes” the data that the DB is accessing. Many different queries are executing in parallel, some hitting RAM cache, some hitting storage.
