During Contech2024, Piet de Visser will present Serverless and distributed databases, What to Expect
| Serverless and distributed databases, What to Expect The next trend (hype?) seems to be : Clustered, serveless, distributed, sharded, replicated, databases. That is a lot of buzzwords together, and I have ommitted “multi-cloud”, “raft” and “vector”. We’ll try to find out how various vendors interpret those (buzz)words and how/when these are useful We’ll explore what users, administrators and application-programmers can expect when data is stored in one of those “new and shiny” databases. And then, when your boss tells you to “Use This”, maybe you know what to watch out for. In the end your aim is probably to keep your data Safe and Available. |
