Presentation
PDF Deep Dive: InnoDB Transactions and Write Paths
In this online event we share how MariaDB’s default InnoDB storage engine implements ACID (atomic, consistent, isolated, durable) transactions in a scalable fashion.
We explain the basics of persistent InnoDB data structures and logging and cover some performance improvements that allow MariaDB to scale from anything between an embedded device with a few CPU cores to a high end server with dozens of cores.
If you have an interest in the performance of MariaDB server, please come along.
