This talk aims to introduce the MyRocks storage engine at a high level. This is not a deep dive of the technology, a slide deck of benchmark results, or a how-to on migrating your data into the MyRocks engine. Rather, it will be a discussion of the fundamental differences between MyRocks and InnoDB.
We’ll look at the pros and cons of the engine and discuss some use cases where it may be a reasonable. The main takeaway from this talk is that MyRocks isn’t a silver bullet that should just be blindly used as a drop-in replacement for InnoDB. Rather, MyRocks is definitely an alternative to exploding data volume that should be evaluated in certain use cases.
