A comment on Apple open-sources FoundationDB.

Found this section on performance very interesting.

https://apple.github.io/foundationdb/performance.html#throug...

I wonder what the SSD engine performance would look with NVMe standard NAND or an Optane SSD instead of SATA. Any FoundationDB guys/gals on this thread able to comment?

Another Q: what's more commonly used in current FoundationDB deployments: memory engine or storage engine?

We run both, memory engine hasn't seen too many updates in the last 3 years though. For SSDs, we use i3 as well as EBS-backed volumes.
