A Definitive Guide to Using BigQuery Efficiently

Towards Data Science

Like a dragon guarding its treasure, each byte stored and each query executed demands its share of gold coins. Join as we journey through the depths of cost optimization, where every byte is a precious coin. It is also possible to set a maximum for the bytes billed for your query.

Introducing Netflix’s Key-Value Data Abstraction Layer

Netflix Tech

The first level is a hashed string ID (the primary key), and the second level is a sorted map of a key-value pair of bytes. Smarter Pagination We chose payload size in bytes as the limit per response page rather than the number of items because it allows us to provide predictable operation SLOs.

Improving Efficiency Of Goku Time Series Database at Pinterest (Part?—?1)

Pinterest Engineering

See the graph below, which shows the compaction read and write bytes on a cluster when it is bootstrapping for the first time. Figure 10: compaction read and write bytes showing non zero values as soon as host starts up. This slow bootstrap time was a definite hindrance on our move to less compute heavy instances for cost savings.

Chart 2: Bytes logged per second via Legacy versus Tulip. We can see that while the number of logging schemas remained roughly the same (or saw some organic growth), the bytes logged saw a significant decrease due to the change in serialization format. Chart 1: Logging schemas using Legacy versus Tulip.
