The master/slave configuration described is also flawed -- it
The leader/follower configuration described is also flawed -- it
doesn't provide any solution for handling replication lag (i.e.,
query inconsistencies introduced because of the time taken for a
write to propagate to the slaves). It also doesn't consider the
write to propagate to the followers). It also doesn't consider the
interaction of transactions with the database utilization strategy.
So - what does this mean in practice? Let's consider another sample
configuration. This one will have several databases: one for the
``auth`` application, and all other apps using a master/slave setup

If you're testing a multiple database configuration with leader/follower
