This is one of the things I’ve been doing at Cursor! We’ve migrated our largest database workload, the `codebase` cluster, from AWS Aurora Limitless to PlanetScale. The cluster contains syncing metadata for all the user codebases that we index. Why did we migrate from Aurora
PlanetScale is a beast. Our largest workload there has 256 shards and 300 TB (!) of data. Queries respond at ~10ms (p99) at peak hours. Just bonkers.

We’re cooking up something special here… can’t wait for it to land! 🔥
We’ve been hard at work building the most scalable and reliable sharding solution for Postgres. A great piece of software deserves a great name and iconography. Say hello to Neki.

Presented how Vitess runs atomic distributed transactions at scale over sharded MySQL at MySQL Belgian Days 🇧🇪. Real-world 2PC with crash recovery. Talk: https://t.co/0QI7xLyKbA

The project nobody has seen yet is Nova. Vitess for Postgres. Built from first principles, not using Vitess. We have spent 4 years sharding some of the world's largest databases. Those learnings will inform an architecture bespoke to Postgres. Only PlanetScale can do this.

Read about how Cash App, the #1 finance app in the App Store, runs on PlanetScale's cloud database platform. https://t.co/TbX6WDdd3I

Cash App's move to PlanetScale resulted in streamlined database operations, improved performance, and reduced operational overhead.

At @PlanetScale we talk about scale we mean it. This cluster has over a 1 petabyte of provisioned storage.

We are getting closer to a fully distributed database. Had nice brainstorming sessions to get to this state. Looking forward to more of them. Cheers everyone! @vitessio @PlanetScale #mysql #planetscale

Airtel Black customer support is a sham by @airtelindia They say `Free Service Visits` but someone has to at least visit first to get that benefit. It is even hard to escalate the issue.
