Match the following database terms and concepts with their descriptions:

<p>LMDB = A high-performance, transactional key-value store with a unique memory-mapped file design db_key = A subset of the fields of the db_record instance that it is the key for db_record = A value that can contain a number of fields, as well as a small header that contains some additional meta data by_rec_num = A type of db_key that is used as the primary index for all db_record’s</p> Signup and view all the answers

Match the following database best practices with their descriptions:

<p>Avoid long write transactions = To prevent locking the database for a long period of time Break write transactions into smaller units = To allow other processes to interleave writes Remove corrupted database lock file = Once the database isn’t in use Reuse nodes with no data = Using a freelist of pages</p> Signup and view all the answers

Match the following concepts from the text with their descriptions:

<p>rdb = Our proprietary record-based database that provides a common transient data storage layer and event sourcing backbone LMDB = The underlying storage engine for rdb that uses a B+-tree to store key-value pairs B+-tree = A data structure used by LMDB to store key-value pairs, with the values stored inline to the keys up to a compile-time defined size subdatabase = A feature of LMDB that allows for up to 16 databases within a single database file</p> Signup and view all the answers

Match the following LMDB features with their descriptions:

<p>Page cache = B+-trees used by LMDB are page cache friendly, resulting in low latency reads and writes without requiring additional tuning Transactions = LMDB allows for a single read/write transaction and many read-only transactions, with other potential writers blocked during a read/write transaction Database file = An LMDB instance is a single file on disk, and when a process opens the database, mmap is called to map the database file into process memory Node size = Each node of the B+-tree in LMDB is allocated at the operating system's page size, typically 4KB</p> Signup and view all the answers

Match the following rdb features with their descriptions:

<p>Common way for processes to communicate and cache data = rdb provides this using strong record definitions and flexible indexes Single subdatabase = rdb only ever uses a single subdatabase within an LMDB instance Compile-time defined size = LMDB stores values inline to the keys up to this size Page cache leverage = LMDB's node size matching the page size allows it to leverage the page cache to its full potential</p> Signup and view all the answers
