Ah yes, HN. You know there are billions of sites(wp mostly), LoB apps etc that run on 1 mysql/pg/etc instance right? Replicas are not typical and a tiny minority.
- movedx 2y agoExactly. Kubernetes and micro services? Sure, for about 0.5% of the industry. Everyone else needs two servers and a load balancer.

- anonzzzies 2y agoOP was talking about 'typical database setup' being a replicated db. It's not typical. Nor is the use of k8s for stuff outside HN and massive companies. Not that I mentioned k8s anyway.
