Cloud Computing | Database Scalability | Replication | Sharding | Replication vs Sharding | Distributed Databases
Yes, you can scale a relational database.
Of course, it’s much simpler to have a relational database running on a single machine. You scale it up as necessary by adding more computing resources.
However, a non-distributed database will always be limited in storage and computing power.
So, how can you scale a relational database?
You can use sharding or replication.
In this video, I introduce the two approaches and compare them. Finally, I discuss when you should use one over the other.
