Bugaev Roman About the problem of DBMS choice & what
to do if you have gone the wrong way
.NET web-‐‑developer
SQL or NoSQL, that is the question!
Ñ Learning management system Ñ SCORM Ñ 1 million active users CyberU
Ñ No transactions Ñ No relations Ñ No datatypes (some) SimpleDB
Key → ALribute → Value select count(*) from cyberu_users where
RecordType = 'user'
Prons & Cons
Ñ Everything is indexed Ñ Distributed Ñ Replicated Ñ Completely hosted on Amazon system
BUT Ñ Latency specially if you’re not on ec2 (even between nodes) Ñ Only strings, lexicographical string only Ñ Huge amount of code
Ñ If you love writing code-‐‑-‐‑ really, truly love to
write code-‐‑-‐‑ you'ʹll love it enough to write as liLle of it as possible. And SQL can help you.
SQL is awesome! -‐‑ Structured Query Language -‐‑ ACID Atomicity,
Consistency, Isolation, Durability -‐‑ Predictable -‐‑ Schema -‐‑ Based on rational algebra -‐‑ Standardized
No, really, it'ʹs awesome! -‐‑ Hardened -‐‑ Free and commercial
choices -‐‑ MySQL, PostgreSQL, Oracle, DB2, MS SQL... -‐‑ Commercial support -‐‑ Tooling -‐‑ Everyone knows it -‐‑ It'ʹs mature!
None
Sellerhit
So... -‐‑ Some preLy big and important problems -‐‑
And brightest engineers in the world -‐‑ Who loooove to build stuff
Yesterday'ʹs problem of biggest guys Is today'ʹs
problem of startup in garage
Ñ What schema can be fine for a lot of
product’s types? E-‐‑commerce
Books
Music
Jeans
Ñ Flexible (and sane) Ñ Searchable Ñ Easy to use Ñ Fast MongoDB
Ñ Atomic single document writes Ó If you need atomic writes across
multi-‐‑document – don’t use MongoDB And what about $$?
Ñ Orders, Inventory (id, count) and Payment Transaction you
can store in SQL Ñ UI – MongoDB, ecomerce -‐‑ SQL Most boring SQL Scheme ever
Ñ Double check you choice of DBMS and tools
Ñ Do it fast Ñ Check your logic Ñ Enterprise design Ñ Id<User> != Id<Product> Ñ Unit tests Ñ Delete code Ñ Optimize your tools Ñ Be brave! Data migrations
Use case – first, DB – last © Anonymous
