Azure database for mysql - cross region read replica


I'm using Azure database for mysql - Flexible server and we would like to have Disaster recovery in another Azure region. As per the below documentation, the cross region read replica is not supported. My question is what is the correct way to have cross region Disaster recovery?

Solution

  • Cross region read replicas for MySQL Flexible Server is part of our backlog and will be coming soon. Meanwhile, you can leverage data-in replication to achieve the same.
