How to scale a database without sharding
Scaling a relational database can be a complex task, but it doesn’t need to be. A Distributed SQL database, such as CockroachDB, delivers completely automated, effortless, and elastic cloud scale while guaranteeing transactions. It is a database that reimagines the execution and storage layers while still allowing you, the developer, to still use familiar SQL syntax.
In the livestream we walk through how to never shard another database and gain effortless scale as well as:
• Horizontal scale of a database without sharding
• How active-active endpoints eliminate downtime
• Online schema changes and rolling upgrades
• Anchor rows of data to a location to improve performance
