Interesting. The big issue I see from the proposed model (spin up your application on-demand) is the need to retain a long-lived connection pool to a "traditional" container/machine with a standard relational database (the cost of reestablishing a connection every time would obviate any benefit of the scheme).
- avsm 12y agoThat's true with a TCP connection and its three-way handshake. With a shared memory vchan across two VMs, establishing a connection is less than a millisecond (if that).
- mercurial 12y agoSure, but if you're using both a read/write master and a hot standby for read-only queries on another machine, you're going to need TCP.
