Designing a Million‑QPS Database Architecture: Sharding, Caching, and High Availability

This article explains how to architect a database system that can sustain tens of millions of queries per second by combining sharding, read‑write separation, multi‑layer caching, traffic shaping, and robust high‑availability strategies to keep most requests off the database and ensure reliable data storage.

Why Redis Delivers Microsecond Latency: Memory‑First, Single‑Threaded, and I/O Multiplexing

Redis achieves sub‑millisecond response times by storing all data in RAM, using a single‑threaded event loop with I/O multiplexing (epoll/select/poll), and employing highly optimized data structures such as skip lists and hash tables that provide O(1) or O(log N) operations.

Kafka High‑Throughput Tricks: Sequential Writes, Zero‑Copy, Partitioning

The article explains how Kafka achieves high throughput by writing messages sequentially to disk, leveraging OS page cache and zero‑copy system calls, using partitioned topics for parallelism, batching and compressing records on both producer and broker sides, and employing asynchronous replication with configurable persistence strategies.
