Because monolithic applications combine database, client-side interfaces, and server-side application elements in a single executable, they’re difficult to understand, even for their own administrators. With real-time observability, teams can easily plan their migration and fine-tune performance as they migrate microservices.

Container technology is very powerful as small teams can develop and package their application on laptops and then deploy it anywhere into staging or production environments without having to worry about dependencies, configurations, OS, hardware, and so on. The time and effort saved with testing and deployment are a game-changer for DevOps.

Managing storage and performance efficiently in your MySQL database is crucial, and general tablespaces offer flexibility in achieving this. Flexible location : Data files can reside within the MySQL data directory or an independent location, enabling finer control over storage management and performance tuning.

Complementing the hardware is the software on the RAE and in the cloud, and bridging the software on both ends is a bi-directional control plane. The challenge, then, is to be able to ingest and process these events in a scalable manner, i.e., scaling with the number of devices, which will be the focus of this blog post.

Similarly for this guide MySQL can be swapped for a mySQL based databases such as MariaDB. As is also the case this limitation is at the database level (especially the storage engine) rather than the hardware level. As is exactly the same with PostgreSQL for system choice a 2 socket system is optimal for MySQL OLTP performance.

Partitioning is a way in which a database (MySQL in this case) splits its actual data down into separate tables but still gets treated as a single table by the SQL layer. As the data is distributed into smaller partitions, the database engine only needs to scan relevant partitions, leading to faster query responses.

HammerDB is a load testing and benchmarking application for relational databases. All the databases that HammerDB tests implement a form of MVCC (multi-version concurrency control). On high-performance multi-core systems all the supported databases can return performance in the many millions of transactions per minute.

Google was among the pioneers that created “web scale” architectures to analyze the massive data sets that resulted from “crawling” the web that gave birth to Apache Hadoop, MapReduce, and NoSQL databases.

One of the common ways to classify database workloads is whether it is “read intensive” or “write intensive”. Because recognizing if the workload is read intensive or write intensive will impact your hardware choices, database configuration as well as what techniques you can apply for performance optimization and scalability.
