Migrating an on-premises SQL Server instance to an Azure Virtual Machine (VM) is a common method to migrate to Azure. Microsoft has helped simplify things by creating multiple types of virtual machines. Memory optimized – High memory-to-CPU ratio, relational database servers, medium to large caches, and in-memory analytics.

HammerDB is a software application for database benchmarking. Databases are highly sophisticated software, and to design and run a fair benchmark workload is a complex undertaking. The Transaction Processing Performance Council (TPC) was founded to bring standards to database benchmarking, and the history of the TPC can be found here.

Back on December 5, 2017, Microsoft announced that they were using AMD EPYC 7551 processors in their storage-optimized Lv2-Series virtual machines. The L3 cache size is 64MB. I wrote about using CPU-Z to benchmark the Intel Xeon E5-2673 v3 processor in an Azure VM in this article. Figure 1: CPU-Z Benchmark Results for LS16v2.

Benchmark different trigger implementations to identify the most efficient option. These table cache instances could be accessed concurrently, allowing DML to use cached table descriptors without locking each other.

The use case is the TPC-C benchmark but executed not on a high-end server but on a lower-spec virtual machine that is I/O limited like for example, with AWS EBS volumes. I decided to use a virtual machine with two CPU cores, four GB of memory, and storage limited to a maximum of 1000 IOPs of 16KB.

As an engineer on a browser team, I'm privy to the blow-by-blow of various performance projects, benchmark fire drills, and the ways performance marketing (deeply) impacts engineering priorities. With each team, benchmarks lost are understood as bugs. All modern browsers are fast, Chromium and Safari/WebKit included. Content Indexing.

High availability works through a combination of the following: No single point of failure (SPOF) : You must eliminate any single point of failure in the database environment, including physical or virtual hardware the database system relies on that would cause it to fail. Each node has its own cache buffer.)

This post at an entry-level discusses the options you have to improve log throughput in your benchmark environment. . The first example shows a data load, the second a TPC-C based workload with 5 virtual users and the 2nd example with 10 virtual users. To illustrate the data reads on Oracle we can flush the buffer cache.

Stable media is commonly physical disk storage, but other devices and certain caching facilities qualify as well. Many high-end disk subsystems provide high-speed cache facilities to reduce the latency of read and write operations. This cache is often supported by a battery-powered backup facility.
