How Admiral Scales YugabyteDB Effortlessly on Google Cloud
summary
Admiral runs YugabyteDB on Google Cloud with 5 regions across 3 continents to serve ~6,000 pageviews/sec (~16,000 Yugabyte queries/sec) and an engineering team of eight. Accounts hit 4.5 ms 90th‑percentile reads and a self‑hosted cluster sustains 9,000 selects/sec and <1,000 updates/sec; visitor events move from ClickHouse+Redis to an independent cluster per region for strong consistency and deliver ~5,000 updates/sec with per‑user locking and snapshot backups to GCS.
