Showdown: MySQL 8 vs. PostgreSQL 10

I ended up reducing the number of clients. In my case I had a thousand servers, and I was able to change the application structure and merge them into a dozen big application servers. Now with connection pooling each server has less than 100 connections.

As a more permanent solution for scaling, I'm moving out of mysql into something more distributed.

Or you can have move to mariadb, using configuration "thread_handling=pool-of-threads" to enable threadpool that is exactly the solution.

(MySQL have that only for "entreprise" version)
