Scaling MySQL: Vertical Limits, Sharding Strategies, and the I/O Bottleneck

When 'adding more RAM' stops working, you need a strategy. We dissect database sharding architectures relevant to high-traffic European workloads in 2017.

Breaking the Monolith: Database Sharding Strategies for High-Load Systems (2016 Edition)

When vertical scaling hits the wall, sharding is your only exit. We explore key-based and range-based partitioning, handling cross-shard JOINs, and why low-latency infrastructure is non-negotiable for distributed data layers.

Database Sharding Strategies: Breaking the Monolith Before It Breaks You

Vertical scaling has a ceiling. When your MySQL instance starts choking on write-heavy loads, it's time to talk about sharding. We explore consistent hashing, topology planning, and why network latency in Oslo matters more than you think.

Database Sharding: The Nuclear Option for Scaling Beyond the Monolith

When vertical scaling hits the ceiling, sharding is the only path forward. A deep dive into partitioning strategies, consistent hashing, and infrastructure considerations for 2016.

Survival Guide: Database Sharding Strategies for High-Traffic European Apps

With the recent invalidation of Safe Harbor, data locality is critical. Learn when to shard your MySQL architecture and why vertical scaling on Norwegian NVMe infrastructure might be the smarter move in late 2015.

Database Sharding Strategies: Surviving High-Scale Writes Without Losing Your Sanity

Sharding is a last resort, not a feature. We explore architectural patterns for scaling MySQL and PostgreSQL horizontally, specifically tailored for the Norwegian infrastructure landscape post-Safe Harbor.

The Monolith Must Die: Practical Database Sharding Strategies for High-Traffic Apps

Vertical scaling hits a wall. When your `innodb_buffer_pool_size` exceeds physical RAM, it's time to shard. We break down the architecture of distributed databases, consistent hashing, and why low-latency infrastructure in Norway is critical for performance.
