Re: [google-cloud-sql-discuss] Re: Failover replica as read replica

Hi Vadim,

I expected that it would autoatically be a read replica for our end users (through API) as well to ease the load on our main db but I only saw one active connection. Do we need to set up a seperate db connection for all selects we do on the db from our API?

A failover replica is fully usable as a read replica. 

What errors do you see when you try to connect to it?

Hi Kamran,

I read this in the documentation but if I create a failover replica it doesn't allow me to use it as a read replica. Do you suggest creating a read replica instead of a failover replica? Will a read replica also be used as a failover when there is an outage of the master?

Best Regards,

Lieven

Hello Lieven,

As described in this article:

You can use the failover replica as a read replica, to offload read operations from the master.

For more information about creating read replicas, see Configuring Replication.

I hope this helps.

Sincerely,

Can't seem to find any info or setting to turn this on.
