I have a client under another account whose eComm site is killing it and they are looking for other providers with this option. I would prefer to keep them on Cloudways. However, since it is their business and not mine I cannot make that decision.

They host multiple sites through Cloudways. They started off at $27 per month when they started with Cloudways and are now over $700 per month in server subscriptions.

Help me help you keep them here. 👀

I completely agree with the following comment of Jonathan and I believe that this possibility of mirroring-replication of server-applications will pave the way for the cloudways to play at a greater level and with an even greater advantage

It would be a first step if it could give us the ability and guidance to try some replication of databases on the same server or elsewhere.

Not having this feature means I don't host any larger sites on Cloudways. It's not robust enough, and forces the user into getting increasingly large servers when it would make more sense (cost and performance wise) to have two smeller dedicated DB and Application servers, instead of one large one that's trying to handle MySQL requests, along with everything else on the server stack.

I imagine Cloudways is losing potential clients and sales due to this limitation.

Any updates on this Cloudways people? Would be amazing

when will cloudways launch this feature? Seems that it has been years.

me too!! my site is a ecommerce... i need load balance!

Is this any closer?

Plus 1. Just looked at the managed DBs from DO (https://www.digitalocean.com/products/managed-databases/). Would be great if this could be easily integrated!

Time to scale out. So we are looking for clustering options for Maria db. Galleria?

Yes, this feature is basically missing from CloudWays. They support scale-up so you can upgrade to the next best thing (higher spec server, etc), but not scale-out yet for a tiered design i.e. 3-tier application. This way you can scale just the web application layer or the database or other components as needed as you grow your business.

This should be the number one goal for 2020 and judging from the likes, it's the most requested feature. Make it happen!

Absolutely!!!

PLUS 1 - Need this!!

would really love to see that

Hello Team, Do you have any updates to the current status of the project ? - Thank you !

This is an amazing idea and I have been searching for similar service all over but couldn't find one made for non-developers.

Yes DO load balancer would be great for large, scaled backends

Anyone working on this?

Any release date yet Team Cloudways?

A solution with rsync, sql parallelism and a load balancer will be great.
It is important for some sites to have 0% downtime.
