Avito: where your classifieds belong

Previously, we have explained the internals of Avito, discussed, where and how we store your classifieds, and how they appear on the search results. In the recent 3-4 a lot has changed in Avito. We got rid of logical replication, stopped using standby servers for reads, removed nearly all stored procedures and our custom failover solution, migrated all our classifieds into a sharded DBMS, switched from the monolith app to microservices. I'll explain why we made such decisions, list some of the problems we encountered and describe the current state of our development process.

    Speeding up databases using non-traditional methods

    As opposed to in-memory DBMSs, traditional disc database management systems have an inherent physical limitation. It's their storage system which is by several orders of magnitude slower than CPU operation memory, even in the case of All-Flash NVM. It becomes especially critical for the development of business analytics apps and OLAP scenarios on disc DBMS. We will consider a number how-tos for improving the performance of traditional DBMSs, and then offer a new storage-centric approach to hardware-based speed-up for disc DBMSs.

    System evolution: from MVP to HighLoad (ex. Insurance App)

    In June 2020, AlfaStrakhovaniye was obliged to use RSA 2.0 government services along with other insurance companies. It was the only way to sell car insurance in Russia. AlfaStrakhovaniye is a leader in car insurance, and its applications degraded under the pressure of calls. It wasn't planned. Postgres used a huge amount of CPU and memory. Nobody could tell what was going on. Degradation started and stopped for no reason. Dev Team and Postgres Pro experts solved that problem. MyBatis in Java services was the killer. Our story is about the development of applications for heavy workloads and technical ignorance while using frameworks.

    Experience in using Live Universal Interface (LUI) and PostgreSQL in creating an analytical reporting system

    The talk covers the use of PostgreSQL, LUI and LUI4ORA2PG for building an analytical reporting system.

    The talk tackles the following topics:

    • migration from an Oracle environment;
    • application of JSON functions;
    • how the temporary tables helped us;
    • our own means for load testing and bottlenecks detection;
    • how to make beautiful GeoJSON format maps to display diagrams on them;
    • installation and testing of the system on an "Elbrus" computer;
    • what became an obstacle or was missing when using PostgreSQL.

    The history of growth of the Live Universal Interface (LUI) web application development tool and the LUI4ORA2PG migration tool can be found in our previous presentations at PGConf conferences:
