A new era for Postgres starts today. PlanetScale has spent the past eight years scaling some of the world's largest MySQL databases for some of the world's most important consumer brands. Today we introduce the next step in the story of scaling OLTP databases, and that's Niki Sharding for Postgres. You just saw the entire architecture of a Nikki cluster capable of massive data sharding, zero downtime operations and millions of queries per second. Let's take a look at how it all works.
