I was not, we are a Laravel PHP backend, using the standard PHP stuff for connection management

From what I understand your webserver and php implementation is stored on different servers from PlanetScale's DBs(?)

Just wonder: How are the DB queries from your php implementation to the Planetscale DBs affected by network latency (hops and length between servers) as well as bandwidth (query results returned by PlanetScale DBs)?

Thanks! :-)
