    Global Tables let database clients in any region read strongly consistent data with region-local latencies. They’re an important piece of the multi-region puzzle — providing latenc…

    At GitHub they should be using CockroachDB (:P), a scalable relational database that also supports schema changes. Then their FKs would work just fine (albeit with some performance…

    Perhaps I could emphasize things differently. FWIW, besides the fact that having a foreign key constraint in that schema would prevent the badness from happening, the even bigger r…
