Wondering what high availability (HA) solutions are most popular? Take our high availability poll below!
HA is always a hot topic. The reality is that if your data is not available, your customers cannot do business with you. In fact, estimates show the average cost of downtime is about $5K per minute. With an average outage taking 40 minutes to correct, you could be looking at a potential cost of $200K if your MySQL instance goes down. Whether your database is on premise, or in public or private clouds, it is critical that your database deployment does not have a potentially devastating single point of failure.
Please take a few seconds and answer the following poll. It will help the community get an idea of how companies are approaching HA in their critical database environments.
