You could also accomplish this with something like ProxySQL or MariaDB MaxScale sitting between PowerDNS and MySQL in order to transparently handle the read/write splitting if you wanted to only have a single PowerDNS instance for whatever reason.

As an example, in /etc/powerdns I have: pdns-internal.conf - Configured to use the read only database (listening on port 5350 with no web server/API - queries are sent to it via dnsdist) pdns-api.conf - Configured to use the write database (listening on port 5351 and the API/web server on 8351) And I use the systemd service instances to manage this (eg. pdns@internal, pdns@api) On 8/07/2019 1:17 pm, Daniel Lo Nigro wrote: > Is there a way to configure PowerDNS + the MySQL backend to send writes > (eg. via the API) and reads to different servers?
