SQL Server According to Bob

SEPTEMBER 26, 2016

When we released Always On Availability Groups in SQL Server 2012 as a new and powerful way to achieve high availability, hardware environments included NUMA machines with low-end multi-core processors and SATA and SAN drives for storage (some SSDs). As we moved towards SQL Server 2014, the pace of hardware accelerated.

Sites that use an excess of resources, whether on the network or on the device, don’t just cause slow experiences, but can leave entire groups of people out. Similarly, there is a growing gap between what a top of the line network connection can handle and what someone with a poor mobile connection or satellite connection can handle.

Key Takeaways Rollbacks in MongoDB are triggered by disruptions in the replication process due to primary node crashes, network partitions, or other failures, which can lead to substantial data loss and inconsistencies. This failure in replication could happen due to crashes, network partitions, or other situations where failover occurs.

The best request is the one that never happens: in the fight for fast websites, avoiding the network is far better than hitting the network at all.
