Abstract
This talk will present a solution that allows MariaDB users to enjoy higher performance and lower storage cost without changing their SQL code and software environment. The key is to deploy MariaDB on a new class of solid-state computational storage drives with built-in transparent compression and atomic write support. This talk will present experimental results to demonstrate the significant performance and storage cost benefits, and discuss opportunities to even further enlarge the benefits.
