I stumbled across this rather convoluted statement from a storage vendor: The HBAs, HCAs, or NICs on a host must support the type of port (SAS, InfiniBand, iSCSI, or Fibre Channel) to which they connect on the controller-drive tray. For the best performance, the HBAs, HCAs, or NICs should support the highest data rate supported by the HICs to which they connect. which got me wondering, how scary can scaling database hardware get? And how do we ensure that (the inevitable)...

Database snapshots are widely used to re-create realistic workloads for database testing and development (test/dev). Almost all enterprise-class storage vendors support snapshot functionality that can create space-efficient point-in-time copies. However, using general-purpose snapshots for database snapshots requires compromises for test/dev activities and incurs extra process and management complexity as compared to database-aware snapshots. In this post we examine the...
