Redshift is a fast, managed, data warehouse solution that's part of AWS. Although it is traditional SQL and meant for BI (Business Intelligence), it is designed for scalability and can support many workloads typically reserved for Big Data tools. It is protocol-compatible with PostgreSQL and is available through JDBC/ODBC, opening it up to a huge range of existing SQL tools.
Some development problems are too complex, some timelines too tight, and some projects too greenfield for established teams to tackle. When you need to create a new team of developers for an ambitious project, the venerable cross-functional or tiger team provides the perfect model for bringing a ragtag crew together to achieve a shared goal.
Vertica is a platform that uses machine learning capabilities to help you analyze large amounts of data. Vertica provides high availability and parallel processing by replicating data onto multiple nodes in a cluster, and uses a column-based data store for efficient querying. You can deploy Vertica in the cloud, on premise, or as a hybrid of the two.
Support for relational databases is a growing focus for Kubernetes users, and the release of Windows Server 2019 is expanding options for .NET applications and SQL Server. SQL Server workloads, however, often rely on Active Directory and Windows Auth, and storage arrays, which will not be supported by SQL Server containers on Windows Server 2019. Fortunately, a new Rancher Labs partner, Windocks, offers new options for SQL Server on Kubernetes and Rancher.
Welcome to our series of blog posts about things Sentry does that perhaps we shouldn’t do. Don’t get us wrong — we don’t regret our decisions. We’re sharing our notes in case you also choose the path less traveled. In this post, we stretch technologies to their limits to see real-time data while handling traffic spikes.
We're happy to announce that the MongoDB Atlas app is now available in the Sumo Logic app catalog. MongoDB Atlas is a globally distributed cloud database service and the easiest way to run MongoDB in the cloud. Atlas offers best-in-class automation, built-in security controls, and proven best practices to protect your data and scale your applications.
Analyst firm Gartner recently predicted that “75% of all databases will be deployed or migrated to a cloud platform by 2022, with only 5% ever considered for repatriation to on-premises.” Enterprise architects are deploying analytics, artificial intelligence, and machine learning workloads on cloud database platforms for greater scalability and lower operational overhead.
Our databases are the ones that keep the Internet alive. There has even been talk for some years about the development of operating systems with which users do not have direct contact with the files, but their personal files are stored in a local DB. In fact, we already see how there are online services that do this for us, such as Google Drive or Nextcloud, the latter written under free license Affero.
Continuous Database Monitoring is a very important aspect of enterprise applications monitoring. Database is the foundation of any application. If the performance of the database is not good then every user request can be impacted. Continuous database monitoring does provide very quick ROI. Tweaking the time consuming SQLs and any other database bottlenecks have impact on performance, scalability and availability of the entire application.
SQL performance tuning can be a tricky thing. We spend so much time focusing on our business logic, it’s easy to leave the database behind in the dust. But it’s important to keep the DB in mind to maintain quality performance. We need tools in our toolbox to tune our SQL performance. In this post, we map out six tips to help you tune SQL Server.
