Database Scaling & Reliability
In this service
Table of Contents
The problem
Your database is growing. Replication is fragile. Backups are slow or untested. Schema changes lock the table. Failover is manual and scary. You’re one bad query away from downtime.
What we do
We design and operate databases that survive production. We focus on the hard parts:
- Replication and HA — MySQL Percona XtraDB Cluster, PostgreSQL streaming replication, proper failover
- Backup validation — automated, tested backups to S3. RTO/RPO you can depend on
- Schema changes without locking — gh-ost, pt-online-schema-change, or application-level migrations
- Connection pooling — ProxySQL for MySQL, pgBouncer for PostgreSQL
- Monitoring and observability — replication lag alerts, slow query logs, backup verification
- Kubernetes-native database operators — Percona operators, CloudNativePG
Outcomes
- A database architecture designed for real production workloads
- Automated backups you can actually restore
- Schema changes without downtime
- Confident failover procedures
