More about the database upgrade
Currently the Mastodon server and database are on the same virtual server in the Digital Ocean Toronto data center. We are moving the database to the Digital Ocean Managed Database service. The service takes care of backups and includes a standby database that is kept in sync.
The most important information in Mastodon is kept in the database, and this move will help with both scalability and backups.
