Our docs were written for humans who scroll, not machines that fetch. We’ve been fixing this in pieces, not all at once. This post is what worked, what didn’t, […]

We’ve designed the system with redundancy at every level, automatically failing over and recovering your database in the event of hardware or software failures.
