Use when designing how a database keeps multiple copies of its data in agreement across nodes for availability, read scaling, and disaster recovery: the three foundational topologies (single-leader / primary-replica, multi-leader / multi-primary, leaderless / quorum), synchronous vs asynchronous replication and the replication-lag trade-off, log shipping vs statement replication vs trigger-based replication, the read-after-write consistency problem and its mitigations (sticky session, read-from-leader, monotonic reads), the failover model and split-brain risk, and the relationship to the CAP/PACELC choices the topology realizes. Do NOT use for horizontal partitioning across nodes (use sharding-strategy), the CAP theoretical frame itself (use cap-theorem-tradeoffs), single-node transactional guarantees (use acid-fundamentals), or query tuning (use query-optimization).
