Indexing, connection pooling, read replicas, query tuning, and throughput-aware SQL.
Cross Shard Query Scatter Gather Mock in Python
Simulate a distributed database cross-shard query using a scatter-gather pattern with a mock Python implementation.
from dataclasses import dataclass
from typing import List, Dict
@dataclass
class NodeResponse:
node_id: int
data: Dict[str, float]
def mock_query_shard(shard_id: int, shard_data: Dict[str, float], query: str) -> NodeResponse:
"""Simulate querying a single shard, returning matches whose value > 50."""
…Mock CQRS Read/Write Split in Python
Separate order mutations from queries using a read model and write model to mock CQRS-style separation of concerns.
from dataclasses import dataclass, field
from typing import List, Dict
@dataclass
class Order:
id: int
amount: float
status: str = "pending"
class OrderWriteModel:
"""Handles all mutations (writes) to orders."""
def __init__(self):
self._orders: Dict[int, Order] = {}
