Recall that browsers arose atop platforms that universally provided a host of services by the late 90's: system fonts (to support layout programs, including WYSIWYG editing). multi-tasking & concurrent programming. high-color image raster.

Application developers often deploy IMDGs as a distributed cache that sits between an application and its database; the IMDG offloads ephemeral data from the database. Offloading the database boosts performance, reduces bottlenecks, and lowers costs. That’s where performance problems can begin.

Languages: Java. Java used to power core file system code. Chokepoint : Even sharded Berkeley DB was choking under the stress and there was a database crash with recovery taking hours, it had to be replaced. Automate schema management for some remaining databases. Java/Python mostly and some small services in Go/C.

I am excited to share with you that today we are expanding DynamoDB with streams, cross-region replication, and database triggers. In traditional database architectures, database engines often run a small search engine or data warehouse engines on the same hardware as the database.
