For example, on a 128GB memory host, this can allow up to 38.4GB of dirty pages. Make sure the drives are mounted with noatime and also if the drives are behind a RAID controller with appropriate battery-backed cache. The background ratio won’t kick in until 12.8GB. By default, it uses 50% of the memory + 1 GB.

Cons of logical backups As it reads all data, it can be slow and will require disk reads too for databases that are larger than the RAM available for the WT cache—the WT cache pressure increases, which slows down the performance. Especially if going into or out of storage types that may throttle bandwidth/network traffic.

Coupled with stateless application servers to execute business logic and a database-like system to provide persistent storage, they form a core component of popular data center service archictectures. Oh, you mean a cache? Yes, a bit like those 2nd-level caches we were talking about earlier, e.g. Ehcache from 2003 onwards.

We introduce a caching mechanism in the API gateway layer, allowing us to offload processing from singleton leader elected controllers without giving up strict data consistency and guarantees clients observe. When a new leader is elected it loads all data from external storage. The cache is kept in sync with the current leader process.
