How we built a serverless SQL database
> If you’ve created a database before, you probably had to estimate how many servers to use based on the expected traffic.The answer is "one". If you have less than 10k req/s you shouldn't even start to think about multiple DB servers or migrating from bog-standard MySQL/MariaDB or Postgres.I will never understand this obsession with "scaling". Modern web dev seriously over-complicates so many things, it's not even funny anymore.
