But it is really hard getting some useful information from this article. I can't even tell if it is not there or just buried in all this marketing hot air.
So, what is it really? Is there one Write-Master that is asynchronously replicated to all other locations? Will writes be forwarded to this master and then replicated back?
I'm very curious about how it performs in real life. Especially considering the locking behavior (SQLite has always the isolation level 'serializable' iirc). The more you put in a transaction or the longer you have to wait for another process to finish their writes, the more likely you have to deal with stale data.
But overall I'm very excited. Also by the fly.io announcement, of course. Lots of innovation and competition. Good times for customers.
