caching (Memcached etc.), Another issue exists for the capture of schema changes, where some systems, like MySQL, don’t support transactional schema changes [1][2]. By their nature, they can only rely on the lowest common denominator of participating systems. providing advanced search capabilities (ElasticSearch etc.),

As the number of Titus users increased over the years, the load and pressure on the system increased substantially. We introduce a caching mechanism in the API gateway layer, allowing us to offload processing from singleton leader elected controllers without giving up strict data consistency and guarantees clients observe.

Key Takeaways Redis offers complex data structures and additional features for versatile data handling, while Memcached excels in simplicity with a fast, multi-threaded architecture for basic caching needs. Redis is better suited for complex data models, and Memcached is better suited for high-throughput, string-based caching scenarios.

The main reason behind this is that MySQL is a relational database system (RDBMS), and any data that is going to be written in it must respect the RDBMS rules. As well, very few cases are in need to have a full system/solution to provide scalability with sharding.

As a MongoDB user, it’s crucial to ensure that your data is safe and secure in the event of a disaster or system failure. Regular database backups are essential to protect against data loss caused by system failures, human errors, natural disasters, or cyber-attacks. Why are MongoDB database backups important?

The third wing of the architecture piece is the “domain specific system-on-chip.” That means multiple data indirections mean multiple cache misses. tef : You can use a message broker to glue systems together, but never use one to cut systems apart.

With these requirements in mind, and a willingness to question the status quo, a small group of distributed systems experts came together and designed a horizontally scalable distributed database that would scale out for both reads and writes to meet the long-term needs of our business. This was the genesis of the Amazon Dynamo database.
