Defining high availability In general terms, high availability refers to the continuous operation of a system with little to no interruption to end users in the event of hardware or software failures, power outages, or other disruptions. Load balancers can detect when a component is not responding and put traffic redirection in motion.

Scalability is a significant concern, as databases must handle growing data volumes and user demands while maintaining peak performance. Vertical scaling is also often discussed, which involves increasing the resources of a single server, which can have limitations in hardware capabilities and become costly as demands grow.

Flexibility and scalability Open source databases provide much greater flexibility regarding customization and configuration. Are you looking to enhance performance, improve scalability, cut expenses, or gain access to specific features you don’t currently have? Start by identifying the reasons driving the migration.

This results in expedited query execution, reduced resource utilization, and more efficient exploitation of the available hardware resources. This not only enhances performance but also enables you to make more efficient use of your hardware resources, potentially resulting in cost savings on infrastructure.
