Scaling database connections is challenging due to resource limits and connection overhead. Client-side connection pools often fail at scale, leading to excessive resource usage and uneven load. WeScale tackles this by implementing server-side connection pooling and efficient connection multiplexing, allowing multiple clients to share fewer connections without state conflicts. https://lnkd.in/g5JTvzDm

Based on Kuaishou's experience transforming Redis from physical machines to a cloud-native solution, this blog explores solutions and key considerations for managing stateful services on Kubernetes with the KubeBlocks Operator.

In KubeBlocks v0.9, the in-place update feature is introduced to update instances by in-place Pod update or expand PVC volumes when certain fields in instance templates updates, significantly reducing the impact on system availability.

This blog was originally published by Lei Zhang in 2020, but even four years later, this blog is still inspiring. The question, "Is Kubernetes a database?", is worth pondering. Using this question as a starting point, Lei's blog unveils the core concepts behind K8s, such as declarative application management and Infrastructure as Data (IaD). By drawing an analogy between K8s and databases, this blog guides us in reinterpreting K8s from a database perspective. Through this blog, you'll gain a fresh understanding of both K8s and the question, "Is Kubernetes a database?" Hope you enjoy reading! https://lnkd.in/gQAZvfuq
