Only in terms of transactions across multiple data centers. In every other way vertically scaler sql performs better, especially for your dollar.
- rapsey 3y agoPerformance is not the only metric. High availability (i.e. no single point of failure) with strong consistency are very important for some.
- diogenes4 3y agoIs availability not an aspect of performance? But of course, hence why i referenced multidc transactions.
- rapsey 3y ago> Is availability not an aspect of performance? Not to my understanding. Can you elaborate?
- diogenes4 3y agoWell, an unavailable service has trivially (perfectly) bad performance. I'm not sure how you'd conceive of performance to exclude availability, or what that conception would give us.
