Feed: MemSQL Blog. Author: Rick Negrin. There is a trend in industry which says that modern applications need to be built on top of one or more special-purpose databases. That every application benefits from using the best-of-breed technology for each requirement.

This enables us to perform index vacuuming and index cleanup with background workers. This adds a PARALLEL option to VACUUM command where the user can specify the number of workers that can be used to perform the command which is limited by the number of indexes on a table. Specifying zero as a number of workers will disable parallelism. This option can't be used with ... Read More

The Munich University of Applied Science (MUAS) ... Read More
