Compression in any database is necessary as it has many advantages, like storage reduction, data transmission time, etc. In this blog, we will discuss both data and network-level compression offered in MongoDB. We will discuss snappy and zstd for data block and zstd compression in a network. I am using PSMDB 6.0.4

AWS is the #1 cloud provider for open-source database hosting, and the go-to cloud for MySQL deployments. ScaleGrid’s MySQL on AWS High Performance deployment can provide 2x-3x the throughput at half the latency of Amazon RDS for MySQL with their added advantage of having 2 read replicas as compared to 1 in RDS.

OpenTelemetry , the open source observability tool, has become the go-to standard for instrumenting custom applications to collect observability telemetry data. This allows us to quickly tell whether the network link may be saturated or the processor is running at its limit. And that’s where Dynatrace OneAgent comes in.

Reconstructing a streaming session was a tedious and time consuming process that involved tracing all interactions (requests) between the Netflix app, our Content Delivery Network (CDN), and backend microservices. Using simple lookup indices in Cassandra gives us the ability to maintain acceptable read latencies while doing heavy writes.

You need to beware that slow server response times can significantly increase TTFB, often due to server overload, network issues, or un-optimized logic on the server side. You need to beware of large HTML files or slow network connections because they can lead to longer download times. Here’s how we do it at Bookaway.

There are five different types of member in an AnyLog system, and any network node can join without restriction as any type of member. Publishers are the producers of the actual data to be served by the network. Given their position of power in the network, such caching seems to be highly incentivised in the absence of such mechanisms.

Collecting some critical metrics at one second intervals, with a total observability latency of ten seconds or less matches the human attention span much better. For systems that are latency sensitive, creating two independent ways to succeed is an important technique for greatly reducing the 99th percentile latency.
