Abstract

Online applications needs to support highly concurrent access and to response to users as soon as possible. Two primary factors make the above requirements to be a technical challenge, one is the large user base, the other is the sharp rise in traffic caused by some specific activities, such as ticketing on 12306.cn during Spring Festival season, shopping on taobao.com during its dual 11 promotions, etc. For the latter, a core focus is how to expand the performance of those existing hardware and software and then to ensure the quality of services when a sharp rise on access happened. Since database schemas have a direct link with data access granularity, etc., this paper considers database schemas as an important factor for performance optimization on highly concurrent access and also covers other elements affecting access performance, such as cache, concurrency, etc., to analyze the performance factors for databases. Extensive experiments are designed to conduct both performance testing and analyzing under different schemas. The experimental results show that a reasonable configuration can contribute a good database performance, which provides factual basis for optimizing highly concurrent applications.
