I am curious what kind of storage hardware is common to see in servers that are dedicated for MySQL ? For example online services like Amazon AWS, Azure, Google, etc that offer(ed) dedicated mysql instances. I know more ram memory always helps, but I am more interested in storage setup. - Is it more common to have mysql on hardware raid cards with many SAS mechanical drives ? - Do they go towards NVME storage ? - Is NVME avoided because of lower endurance and storage wearout ? - Are SAS disks already considered outdated for database servers ? Thank you.
