Architecting for Absolute Availability in the Cloud

In this age of the Internet, we are all open for business 24x7x365. Our websites and applications can never be down for maintenance, let alone for failures. However, nothing we build on is completely reliable. To ensure our data architecture is always available, we must make architectural choices and trade-offs.

This webinar will look at common ways of architecting highly available databases in the cloud, including:

• Options for replicating data between cloud availability zones
• Options for replicating data between regions
• Failure modes
• Advanced availability architectures
• Transaction splitting, replay and session restoration

We’ll explore these topics with a special focus on MariaDB SkySQL’s implementation of the concepts.
