Replication Insights
Replication can serve various purposes, such as transforming data on secondary copies for specific tasks, like batch jobs. While it enhances read scalability by distributing data across multiple machines, it doesn't significantly improve write scalability, as each write must still be executed on every replica. This creates inefficiencies, especially when the write-to-read ratio is low, making it crucial to consider the overall workload when implementing replication strategies.In this clip
