SpiceDB is an open source, Google Zanzibar-inspired, database system for creating and managing security-critical application permissions.

SpiceDB

I'm evaluating a really small usecase. What would happen if multiple instances of spicedb were running with the same backing datastore, but without the operator? Would the behavior be sane?

I've been assuming that it should just work, and we might lose some value at the load balancing level? In this case, there's a clear relationship from upstream to spicedb host.

almost; they wouldn't share a cache

Caching is probably a feature we wont be sensitive to
