We do the same as Josef - we run the database on a VM (single VM,
MariaDB) and leave it up to (in our case) VMWare to ensure its availability.

To protect from HW failure, and to have more free hands when upgrading
underlying OS, we use virtualization with "live migration"/HA and
MariaDB server as a VM.
VM is easy to backup, restore as a snapshot, clone for possible tests, etc.

What do you do to ensure database reliabilit
Hi Diego.
In our setup, the database is critical. We have some wrapper scripts that
consult the database for information, and we also set environment variables on
login, based on user/partition associations. If the database is down, none of
those things work.
I doubt there is appetite in the
IIUC the database is not "critical": if it goes down, you lose access to
some statistics. But job data gets cached anyway and the db will be
updated when it comes back online.
