SmartCat | Tuning Java Driver for Heavy write and Low Latency Read Scenario
https://www.smartcat.io/blog/2016/tuning-java-driver-for-heavy-write-and-low-latency-read-scenario
Tuning Java Driver for Heavy write and Low Latency Read Scenario. In the first two blog posts ( part 1. Separation of read and write session. As explained previously our write latency is not that important, while it is really important to satisfy the SLA constraint regarding reads. We needed to solve the problem of EBS volume disk latencies so the first thing we looked at was load balancing. Since we have multi DC as the base load balancing strategy we use the. Policy. If we wrap it in. But the main thin...

Problem solving can never be fully automated, which is why software developers will always have. However, the repetitive steps of integrating software increments (bugfixes or new feature development), applying changes to production, then testing system integrity and functionality can and should be automated. Utilizing the virtualization of resources and development environments (solutions such as Vagrant) allows us to reuse the environments allowing for rapid application development.

https://www.smartcat.io/blog/2016/mongodb-vs-couchbase-part-two
MongoDB vs Couchbase - part two. This is the round two in comparing MongoDB vs Couchbase. In round one.

Both databases are used for storing (JSON) documents. MongoDB, in fact, stores BSON. Which is (kind of) a superset of JSON specification. MongoDB - Basic Concepts. BSON, Collection, and mongo shell. Couchbase - basic concepts. Attribute to ea...
