> Multi-region deployment only work if your database is globally distributed too. However, making your database globally distributed creates a set of new problems, most of which take time away from your core business. I have used multi-region for every production database I've deployed in the last ~8 years, and it took < 10 seconds of extra time. It's a core feature of services like RDS on AWS. There is a benefit if you're multi-region (but not global) because individual regions go down all the time. It costs more every month, but if you have a B2B business, it's worth the extra cost.
