Adrianna Chang - Migrating Shopify’s Core Rails Monolith to Trilogy - Rails World 2023

Trilogy is a client library for MySQL-compatible database servers. It was open sourced along with an Active Record adapter by GitHub this past year. With promises of improved performance, better portability and compatibility, and fewer dependencies, Shopify’s Rails Infrastructure team decided to migrate our core Rails monolith from Mysql2 to Trilogy.
@shopify Senior Software Developer Adrianna Chang explores why the Trilogy client was built and why Shopify wanted to adopt it.

It’s great, but it doesn’t work MySQL’s default password auth plugin, the only one it supports is deprecated for the next MySQL release too…
