If you are using a legacy application where it is difficult to modify SQL statements, or the database is overloaded due to poorly-designed SQL access patterns, implementing a cache is a common design strategy for addressing database reliability and scalability issues. https://ronaldbradford.com/blog/looking-just-at-the-data-2009-10-07/ Wed, 07 Oct 2009 18:35:38 +0000 https://ronaldbradford.com/blog/looking-just-at-the-data-2009-10-07/ There are many areas you need to review when addressing MySQL performance such as current database load, executed SQL statements, connections, configuration parameters, memory usage, disk to memory ratio, hardware performance & bottlenecks just to name a few. https://ronaldbradford.com/blog/my-favorite-data-type-decimal310-2009-09-18/ Fri, 18 Sep 2009 21:53:56 +0000 https://ronaldbradford.com/blog/my-favorite-data-type-decimal310-2009-09-18/ It may seem hard to believe, but I have seen DECIMAL(31,0) in action on a production server.
