    Vitess

    Vitess

    A database clustering system for horizontal scaling of MySQL. Vitess combines many important MySQL features with the scalability of a NoSQL database.

It also uses caching mechanisms to mediate queries and prevent duplicate queries from simultaneously reaching your database. Vitess automatically handles functions like master failovers and backups. It uses a lock server to track and administer servers, letting your application be blissfully ignorant of database topology. Vitess eliminates the high-memory overhead of MySQL connections. Vitess servers easily handle thousands of connections at once. MySQL doesn’t natively support sharding, but you will likely need it as your database grows.
