Learning objectives

  • Master the Vitess architecture of PlanetScale for professional databases
  • Develop skills in branching and schema changes without downtime in enterprise environments
  • Implement advanced sharding and horizontal scaling with PlanetScale
  • Configure monitoring and insights to optimize production-grade performance
  • Deploy high-availability applications connected to PlanetScale
  • Optimize costs and resilience of production databases

The Learni story

Founded by engineers and learning experts, Learni's mission is to make high-impact tech training accessible to teams everywhere. We work remotely with organizations across the US and Canada, in your time zone, to help teams upskill fast.

Don't let this gap widen

Why this program matters

  • Without this upskilling, your team accumulates a technological gap that translates directly into productivity loss.

  • Organizations that don't train their talents on key topics see their competitiveness drop.

  • Every quarter without training is a gap widening with competitors who invest.

  • The cost of inaction quickly exceeds that of well-targeted training.

Program

Module 1PlanetScale Architecture: Deploy Vitess and Branching (CLI, Dashboard, Connections)

Dive into advanced PlanetScale installation via CLI and dashboard, configure your first branches to test schemas in parallel without impacting production, explore the Vitess architecture with keyspaces and shards, perform practical exercises on a simulated enterprise cluster, migrate an existing MySQL database to PlanetScale with driver connection validation, produce a deliverable and optimized architecture diagram for scaling.

Module 2PlanetScale Scaling: Sharding and Schema Migrations (Boost, Safe Changes, VDiff)

Master dynamic sharding with PlanetScale Boost to accelerate queries, apply non-blocking schema changes via gh-ost and pt-online-schema-change, test split/merge shard scenarios on real high-traffic e-commerce app cases, integrate VDiff to validate data consistency post-migration, develop automation scripts for CI/CD deployments, generate a production-ready horizontal scaling plan with performance metrics.

Module 3PlanetScale Optimization: Monitoring and High Availability (Insights, Alerts, Backups)

Analyze PlanetScale Insights to tune slow queries and connection pools, configure custom alerts on CPU, QPS, and latency for DevOps proactivity, simulate failovers and multi-region setups for 99.999% resilience, integrate automated backups and point-in-time restores in critical exercises, optimize costs with auto compute scaling, conclude with a full audit of your red thread project cluster including optimization report and enterprise roadmap.

Evaluation method

Our method

Training quality, guaranteed at every step

Before, during, after: we frame the brief, introduce the trainer, tailor the content and measure impact. You stay in control from kickoff to wrap-up.

Step 1

Rigorous trainer selection

Each trainer is validated on three criteria: hands-on field expertise, proven pedagogy and alignment with your industry.

  • Triple validation: technical, pedagogical, sectoral.
  • Minimum rating 4.8/5 over the last 12 sessions.
Step 2

You meet the trainer beforehand

30-minute video call between you and the selected trainer to validate the fit, adjust content and clear any final doubts.

  • Live briefing on goals and team context.
  • Veto right — we swap the trainer for free if needed.
Step 3

Content tailored to your context

No recycled slides. The syllabus is reworked from your real cases: tools, constraints, vocabulary, ongoing projects.

  • Hands-on cases drawn from your stack and projects.
  • Program co-written then validated by your team.
Step 4

Continuous quality follow-up

Live evaluations, 30/90/180-day check-ins and a consolidation plan. If the impact misses the mark, we rework it.

  • NPS, knowledge quizzes and skills self-assessment.
  • Satisfaction guarantee: fully satisfied or free rework.

A simple promise: you don't pay to discover the trainer on day one. Everything is validated upfront, by you.
