Frequently Asked Questions
Intermediate to advanced database and backend engineering experience is recommended. Understanding of SQL and basic database concepts is essential.
Both. Labs use pre-configured multi-database environments with real MySQL, PostgreSQL, and cloud platforms for authentic hands-on experience.
Replication lag is monitored via binary log positions and timestamps. Manage it through bandwidth optimization, connection tuning, and parallel replication workers.
Synchronous replication waits for confirmation; asynchronous doesn't. Sync offers consistency guarantees but higher latency; async is faster but risks data loss.
Yes, using CDC tools like Debezium and streaming platforms. Heterogeneous replication requires schema mapping and data transformation.
