No Downtime, No Limits
summary
Claims that YugabyteDB uses Raft across three zones to auto-detect and fail over node failures in ~3 seconds, supports in-region resilience and multi-region BCDR, and offers backups that handle a 15 TB dataset (5 TB logical) to S3 in 11 minutes with restores in ~30 minutes. Examples include a UPI customer scaling from 500k/day toward 30 billion/month, Paramount+ handling ~120M concurrent logins, and GM ingesting 3M writes/sec with 70 TB hot data. Describes PITR clones, blue/green upgrades, zero-downtime ops, and patterns for peak/freak events.
