Mastering Physical Cluster Replication for Disaster Recovery with CockroachDB
In today's data-driven world, the continuity of database operations is not just a technical requirement; it's a cornerstone of business success. For applications built on CockroachDB, the inherent resilience provided by its distributed architecture and Raft replication offers a strong foundation for high availability. However, even with this robust fault tolerance, a comprehensive disaster recovery (DR) plan is essential to safeguard against unforeseen, large-scale incidents.
