Etsy is a marketplace where people around the world gather to make, sell, and buy unique goods and it has grown it into one of the internet’s busiest e-commerce platforms. Therefore, Etsy’s systems must stay online and be fast. To achieve this, among other things, Etsy practices DevOps, a culture with values including collaboration, quality, and tight feedback loops between development and production.
Hundreds of shared database servers back Etsy’s platform, all working in concert to handle Etsy’s demanding workload. Keeping the platform available, reliable, and fast means the databases must be high-performance around the clock. Etsy’s engineering teams rely on Database Performance Monitor (DPM).
