Someone asked a question on Twitter and I thought it's interesting to answer it here in the show. I have a 2 million row table used in my CRUD python app, Iโm worried that as the table grows my inserts will slow down, should I consider sharding my database or partition the table? thank you * inserts are fast, queries are slow 0:00 * inserts can be slow 3:00 * indexes/stored procedures * selects, updates and deletes can be slow 12:00 * add proper indexes. * simplicity wins, premature optimization is bad 15:20 * crazy things that people say as microservices day 1 scares me ๐๏ธListen to the Backend Engineering Podcast https://husseinnasser.com/podcast ๐ญ Backend Engineering Videos https://backend.husseinnasser.com ๐พ Database Engineering Videos https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLQnljOFTspQXjD0HOzN7P2tgzu7scWpl2 ๐ฐ Load Balancing and Proxies Videos https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLQnljOFTspQVMeBmWI2AhxULWEeo7AaMC ๐๏ธ Software Archtiecture Videos https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLQnljOFTspQXNP6mQchJVP3S-3oKGEuw9 ๐ฉ Messaging Systems https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLQnljOFTspQVcumYRWE2w9kVxxIXy_AMo Become a Member https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC_ML5xP23TOWKUcc-oAE_Eg/join Support me on PayPal https://bit.ly/33ENps4 Stay Awesome, Hussein
