Replication between clusters

Allow one cluster to mirror another. Could be similar to read-only replica, but instead of a single node that is known to the source cluster, the mirror would be a read-only replicated cluster. One use of it is to enable faster reads. If the "oper...

Automated Scavenging

Scavenging is a routine maintenance operation in ESDB, but it requires DB admins to run it either manually or using some automation like curl call to the DB API executed by cron. It's not only inconvinient, but also isn't optimal as scavenging nor...
