Growth, plus reliability by reducing the SPOF.
We are beginning to hit the limits of what we can do with the current single-writer database in this hardware.
As well, the size of the data is larger than I’d like for a single MariaDB cluster. That makes operations like setting up new replicas take a long time. Being able to operate on smaller shards will help a lot at parallelizing some of that work.
