Enjoyed @bicatu’s talk yesterday at @confooca 2026 on High Availability:
I especially liked the balanced approach of considering tradeoffs (ex: between sync and async replication), additional costs (dev, ops, maintenance), and that not all parts of the system have the same HA needs (ex: graceful degradation could be enough for some, more critical ones would benefit from active-active pattern).
Mario also has a 5-part article series on the topic (), and a newsletter ().
