Failure Modes and Continuous Resilience

Adrian Cockcroft

A resilient system continues to operate successfully in the presence of failures. There are many possible failure modes, and each exercises a different aspect of resilience. Hence, one way to reduce risk is to make systems more observable. This discussion focuses on hardware, software and operational failure modes.

The top 5 reasons to run your own database benchmarks

HammerDB

That is why we run a workload designed exactly for this purpose as it gives us a “benchmark” 2. Benchmarks are nothing like your real applications, and that’s actually good thing because unlike your application a good benchmark application like HammerDB has been designed to scale. Scalability.
