The Routing tag covers intelligent query routing mechanisms within database architectures—key to optimizing performance, managing read/write loads, and ensuring scalability. For database professionals, efficient routing is critical for maintaining high availability and reducing latency in distributed or replicated environments.
Key concepts include query routing in connection poolers like Pgpool-II, read/write splitting, load balancing, and role-based query direction in primary-replica setups. These methods help streamline operations and enhance resource utilization.
Common challenges include misrouted queries, replication lag, and improper load distribution. Our blogs provide practical tips and configurations to overcome these issues effectively.
