Title: "How Life360 Used ProxySQL to Lower Its Database Load" Date: 2017-11-16 12:25:17 Categories: [data base] tags: [mysql, mariadb, percona]
I’ve blogged before about one of our regular clients, Life360.

This is a non-trivial amount and was easily tens of thousands of pings per second. This added a significant amount of latency to real queries.
