How MongoDB’s Journaling Works by Kristina Chodorow.
From the post:
I was working on a section on the gooey innards of journaling for The Definitive Guide, but then I realized it’s an implementation detail that most people won’t care about. However, I had all of these nice diagrams just laying around.
Well, journaling may be “an implementation detail,” but Kristina explains it well and some “implementation details” shape our views of what is or isn’t possible.
Doesn’t hurt to know more than we when we started reading the post.
Is your appreciation of journaling the same or different after reading Kristina’s post?
