WHITEPAPERVirtualized Databases: Performance Considerations for DBAs

WHITEPAPER: VIRTUALIZED DATABASES: PERFORMANCE CONSIDERATIONS FOR DBAS page
1Virtualized Databases: Performance Considerations for
DBAsBackgroundVirtualization is now ubiquitous for x86 servers, but what about
databases? To answer this question, SolarWinds ran a THWACK® survey1 to see the
level of virtualized databases within our user community and other
characteristics related to their database environment.The results were on target
with virtualization overall, with 87.4% of respondents saying their databases
ran in virtual machines.When it came to which hypervisors were used, VMware® was
by far the most used with 89.5% of respondents. Microsoft® Hyper-V® was a
distant second with 28.7% followed by Azure® VM at 22%.The next category in the
survey covering the most virtualized databases was interesting. Not only due to
Microsoft SQL Server being the most virtualized at 93.3%, but the number of
open-source databases running in a virtual machine (VM). MySQL was the third
most virtualized database platform, which is no surprise given its growing
popularity. PostgreSQL, MongoDB, and MariaDB ranked ahead of IBM DB2 and SAP ASE
(Sybase) showing the growth of open source. 1SolarWinds THWACK Virtualized
