Most teams put up with a database that has outgrown its home because migrations feel too risky. We regularly move terabyte and petabyte databases with no downtime, and reverse cutover if we need to.

Distributed systems are so cool, but also one of the biggest challenges to get *just* right.
Consensus protocols. Connection multiplexing. Caching. Failover. So many factors to consider that require careful design choices.
Been so cool to see Neki come to fruition over the past year+, and I'm blessed to work with some of the best distsys engineers in the world.
A snippet from my talk at Neki night a few weeks ago.

We aimed for 1 million queries per second on sharded Postgres. Five shards got us there. Then we kept going: 512 shards, 1.22 PiB, 118.5 million QPS.

You can now run a zero downtime MySQL import straight from the CLI.
Coming from RDS, Aurora, or Cloud SQL? Run the whole migration from your terminal or hand it off to your agent to do for you.

This summer we upgraded our 56TB Postgres database with (almost) no downtime.
And we moved all new runs to @planetscale Metal.
This post covers everything we did and everything we learned along the way.

Ever wonder what happens to a query when your Postgres database is spread across 1000s of servers?
Follow one through auth, the wire protocol, parsing, planning, and connection pooling, then back to your app with the results.
