Guid.Comb

In ultimele zile am început sa lucrez cu Fluent NHibernate si am descoperit GuidComb. M-am documentat sa vad ce înseamna de fapt. Pe scurt:
One of the better alternatives that i kinda like is the guid.comb strategy. Using regular guids as a primary key value leads to fragmented indexes (due to the randomness of the guid’s value) which leads to bad performance. This is a problem that the guid.comb strategy can solve quite easily for you.
Nu are rost sa traduc și să explic din nou acelasi lucru. O să găsiți pe Google destule materiale. Partea interesanta este modul in care se generează aceste guiduri.
Din cei 32 de biti pe care un guid ii conține, 16 sunt generați in funcție de configurația hardware a mașinii( începînd cu Windows 2000, seria plăcii de rețea nu se mai folosește).
Iar următorii 16 sunt generați in forma următoare:
  • 0-9: se generează pe baza unui uniqueidentifier( depinde de framework);
  • 10-15: pe baza la Datetime;
Acesta este un algoritm de generate de Guid destul de simplu si care isi face treaba foarte bine cînd avem de lucru cu DB. Este foarte folositor mai ales cand trebe sa generam PK. Începînd de la Sql Server 2005 exista Sequential Guid care ii foarte asemănător.
In general se cîștiga un spor de performanta de 25%-30% pe tabele care conține PK ca și guid.In cazul in care tabela pe care lucrați nu are PK, sporul de performanta poate sa fie 0% sau chiar negativ in unele situații. Pentru mai multe informații despre sporul de performanta puteti sa gasiti aici.

PS: Cînd ne ajuta un Guid? Un exemplu este cînd se lucrează cu o aplicația și offline, caz in care la sincronizare nu mai este nevoie de regenerare de PK.

  1. Se pare ca pierderea de performanta e numai daca acel PK are un clustered index, altfel nu.

Windows Docker Containers can make WIN32 API calls, use COM and ASP.NET WebForms

After the last post , I received two interesting questions related to Docker and Windows. People were interested if we do Win32 API calls from a Docker container and if there is support for COM. WIN32 Support To test calls to WIN32 API, let’s try to populate SYSTEM_INFO class. [StructLayout(LayoutKind.Sequential)] public struct SYSTEM_INFO { public uint dwOemId; public uint dwPageSize; public uint lpMinimumApplicationAddress; public uint lpMaximumApplicationAddress; public uint dwActiveProcessorMask; public uint dwNumberOfProcessors; public uint dwProcessorType; public uint dwAllocationGranularity; public uint dwProcessorLevel; public uint dwProcessorRevision; } ... [DllImport("kernel32")] static extern void GetSystemInfo(ref SYSTEM_INFO pSI); ... SYSTEM_INFO pSI = new SYSTEM_INFO(...

How to audit an Azure Cosmos DB

In this post, we will talk about how we can audit an Azure Cosmos DB database. Before jumping into the problem let us define the business requirement: As an Administrator I want to be able to audit all changes that were done to specific collection inside my Azure Cosmos DB. The requirement is simple, but can be a little tricky to implement fully. First of all when you are using Azure Cosmos DB or any other storage solution there are 99% odds that you’ll have more than one system that writes data to it. This means that you have or not have control on the systems that are doing any create/update/delete operations. Solution 1: Diagnostic Logs Cosmos DB allows us activate diagnostics logs and stream the output a storage account for achieving to other systems like Event Hub or Log Analytics. This would allow us to have information related to who, when, what, response code and how the access operation to our Cosmos DB was done. Beside this there is a field that specifies what was th...

Cloud Myths: Cloud is Cheaper (Pill 1 of 5 / Cloud Pills)

Cloud Myths: Cloud is Cheaper (Pill 1 of 5 / Cloud Pills) The idea that moving to the cloud reduces the costs is a common misconception. The cloud infrastructure provides flexibility, scalability, and better CAPEX, but it does not guarantee lower costs without proper optimisation and management of the cloud services and infrastructure. Idle and unused resources, overprovisioning, oversize databases, and unnecessary data transfer can increase running costs. The regional pricing mode, multi-cloud complexity, and cost variety add extra complexity to the cost function. Cloud adoption without a cost governance strategy can result in unexpected expenses. Improper usage, combined with a pay-as-you-go model, can result in a nightmare for business stakeholders who cannot track and manage the monthly costs. Cloud-native services such as AI services, managed databases, and analytics platforms are powerful, provide out-of-the-shelve capabilities, and increase business agility and innovation. H...
