The way to scale is to have a config management that allows easy setup
of many servers running the MySQL + PDNS Stack.

Hi there,

Recently I’m trying out PowerDNS, and I’m pretty enjoy the flexibility
and abundant API and Powedns admin UI compared to our regular bind
deployment. I’m currently using a remote MySQL as backend to serve the
request, and as recommended by the wiki, I use IP to avoid the
Chicken-Egg problem when using DNS.

However, one thing I’m wondering is that how to make this ip based
remote backend solution more production ready. From what I have read on
many tutorials online, most of the MySQL database are set up locally,
which I think is good for POC, but local is not scalable and easy to
manage when database entries scale up. However, if we use ip based
solution, normal corp database deployment will have master and slave,
and it is hard to manage if we hardcode an ip, which is subject to
change from master to slave or vice versa, in the config.

Any suggestion or comment is welcomed. Thanks in advance.

Best regards.
Jianan.
