A CoPE's Duty: Indexing on Prod

Odds are that a software engineer today is really focused on one place: pre-prod.

Best practices for monitoring and remediating connection churn

Elevated connection churn can be a sign of an unhealthy distributed system. Connection churn refers to the rate of TCP client connections and disconnections in a system. Opening a connection incurs a CPU cost on both the client and server side. Keeping those connections alive also has a memory cost. Both the memory and CPU overhead can starve your client and server processes of resources for more important work.
