Introducing Scale: SurrealDB Cloud, built for high availability and scale
Short summary
SurrealDB Cloud launches Scale, a production-grade tier built on the new SurrealDS distributed storage engine. Scale provides multi-node fault tolerance, horizontal scaling with no write bottleneck, multiple availability zones, and reduced latency through embedded consensus. Upcoming features include object-storage persistence, instant database branching for petabyte-scale datasets, and cost-efficient cross-region replication.
- •Multi-node clusters with no single point of failure across availability zones
- •Independent compute/storage scaling with embedded quorum consensus and no write bottleneck
- •Roadmap includes object storage, instant branching, and cross-region replication
