Microservice architectures are trending. We need to consider how this impacts the performance of our applications and the databases we build to support them.
This article is one in a series that focuses on improving performance in Db2 Warehouse. The first part provides some background information and lays out the first and most important aspect of query optimization, namely, cardinality estimation or estimating the number of rows in an execution plan.
