This document summarizes an assessment of SSD performance in the IBM DS8000 storage system. SSDs provide significantly higher throughput and lower response times than HDDs for random I/O workloads. Testing showed SSD response times were much lower than HDDs across all data points. Using SSDs can improve performance for applications requiring low response times while reducing energy usage, cooling needs, and data center footprint. SSD best practices include placing hot data on SSDs and using SSDs for applications that traditionally overprovisioned HDDs.
Benchmarking Performance: Benefits of PCIe NVMe SSDs for Client WorkloadsSamsung Business USA
Ā
The transition from Serial ATA (SATA ) to Peripheral Component Interconnect Express (PCIe) interface and Non-Volatile Memory Express (NVMe) protocol is taking client storage to a new level. This white paper discusses the benefits that PCIe NVMe SSDs, such as Samsungās 950 PRO, bring to client PC users. Client PC workloads are not always well understood in the industry, since common benchmarking utilities tend to focus on measuring maximum performance rather than performance under typical PC usage. This white paper looks at actual IO traces of PC workloads to better understand how client SSDs should be benchmarked, and also tests the 950 PRO against other Samsung SSDs to show how PCIe and NVMe improve IO performance in tests that represent real-world IO activity.
Searching for a faster SSD for enterprise applications? With all the acronyms, the choice can be confusing. But when we step through all the technology options, they lead to one clear choice. Check out the infographic to learn more about M.2 SSDs.
Big Data SSD Architecture: Digging Deep to Discover Where SSD Performance Pay...Samsung Business USA
Ā
Which storage technology, HDDs or SSDs, excels in big data architecture? SSDs clearly win on speed, offering higher sequential read/write speeds and higher IOPS. However, deploying SSDs in hundreds or thousands of nodes could add up to a very expensive proposition. A better approach identifies critical locations where SSDs enable immediate cost-per-performance wins. This whitepaper will look at the basics of big data tools, review two performance wins with SSDs in a well-known framework, as well as present some examples of emerging opportunities on the leading edge of big data technology.

Dell PowerEdge R930 with Oracle: The benefits of upgrading to Samsung NVMe PC...Principled Technologies
Ā
Strong server performance is essential to companies running Oracle Database. The new Dell PowerEdge R930 provided strong performance with 22 SAS HDDs, but this performance improved when we replaced all of the drives with SAS solid-state drives. It improved further when we used a mix of HDDs and SDDs along with a caching solution. We saw the greatest performance boost when we used eight Samsung-powered NVMe PCIe SSDs. The upgraded configurations of the Dell PowerEdge R930 with Samsung-powered NVMe PCIe SSDs delivered up to 13.9 times the database performance of the all-HDD configuration. This makes the new Dell PowerEdge R930 a powerful platform with scalable storage options that can potentially translate into significant service improvements for your business and your customers, which helps in maximizing ROI.
Historically, the tradeoff of hard disk drives (HDDs) versus solid state drives (SSDs) in enterprises has revolved around three variables: capacity, endurance and price. This whitepaper looks at how increased capacity and durability is expanding SSD applications in the data center.

MQTT - MQ Telemetry Transport for Message QueueingPeter R. Egli
Ā
Description of message queueing (MQ) protocol for the transport of telemetry data (MQTT - MQ Telemetry Transport).
MQTT is a protocol designed to fit the needs of Internet of Things scenarios. It is lightweight and efficient, but still affords all the features required for reliable messaging between wireless sensor / actor nodes and applications. MQTT decouples producer and consumer of data (sensors, actors and applications) through message brokers with publish / subscribe message queues called topics. MQTT supports different levels of quality of service thus providing the flexibility to adapt to the different needs of applications.
Further features like will and retain messages make MQTT well suited for sensor network scenarios as well as for lightweight enterprise messaging applications.
Open source implementations like Eclipse paho provide ample code for integrating MQTT in your own applications.
Hybrid RAID arrays of Solid State Drive (SSD) and Hard Disk Drive (HDD) offer tremendous performance gains over standard HDD RAID arrays by performing read operations from the faster SSD and write operations on both the SSD and HDD.

Elevating Tactical DDD Patterns Through Object CalisthenicsDorra BARTAGUIZ

After immersing yourself in the blue book and its red counterpart, attending DDD-focused conferences, and applying tactical patterns, you're left with a crucial question: How do I ensure my design is effective?
