Venmo's Aurora database clusters are the centerpiece of its success.

As a follow up to our 2021 talk Venmo's Aurora Upgrades With Open Source Tools, we dive deeper into the failover aspect of running Aurora at scale and achieving virtually no downtime switchover/rollback.

We will discuss:
  • Our motivations for choosing ProxySQL,
  • Our Infrastructure as Code implementation for ProxySQL
  • Our recipes for a painless failover
  • 3 Ps of a successful failover - People, Process and Product
  • What went well for us and what could go better.
We hope sharing our experiences will enrich yours.
