Make switchovers/failovers easier

Opened this issue · 2 comments

Follow-up from #632 and #621

It should be easier for us to switch/failover automatically if we lose a data centre.

We should define what 'easier means, what kind of reliability we want to achieve, failover times, how we deal with desync issues, etc.

It's not hard, it just needs notice so we can schedule it, ideally for a Sunday morning or failing that for a Saturday morning.
