The barrier to entry for building software has collapsed. The barrier to building something that matters hasn’t moved an inch.

At Uber, engineers rely on MySQL® for applications that need relational databases. MySQL is the preferred choice for use cases that require ACID transactions and relational data modeling with a SQL interface. We support over 2,600 MySQL clusters. MySQL clusters follow the topology of a single primary and multiple-replica model. The replication is by default asynchronous, where the replica nodes poll the binlogs from the primary server. Only the primary node is used to serve write requests, and the read requests are served from replicas in a round-robin fashion with region affinity. The number of replicas required in the cluster depends on the read volume served by the cluster.
