Life of a vitess cluster is a weird title for this, would expect something more like “how to bootstrap a vitess cluster”.
- the-rc 6y ago"Life of a query" is a class that every Google engineer attends during orientation. It goes through all the frontends and backends involved in serving a search request. Many more presentations with similar titles have been created since, about all sorts of projects and systems, so this one follows that tradition.
- hilbertseries 6y agoEh, if it was called life of a vitess query. And it talked about the grpc client, the vtgates, the routing in the vtgates, the vttablet and finally the MySQL database. That would make sense. But for it to be titled life of a vitess cluster and talk only about setting up a vitess cluster. I don’t really think it follows. For instance, I might expect how reparents happen to be included as well. Or what it takes to reshard a key space, etc.
