I'm curious if there is a module or a way to display a working copy of a Drupal website even when MySQL goes down. While obviously if MySQL goes down, it should be resolved, it would still be nice for the customer side and their audience to be able to use the website still.

Has anyone ever done something like this before? You wouldn't be able to login or make content changes of course. Is there a way using .htaccess or something that you could ping the site and if MySQL is down, redirect to a cloned site?

    This question appears to be off-topic. But yeah, there's Tome.

    How is it off topic if it's specifically referring to Drupal? But thank you for sharing Tome, wish it was for 7 though.

    "Questions asking to recommend or find a book, tool, module, theme, distribution, tutorial, or other off-site resource are off-topic for Drupal Answers as they tend to attract opinionated answers and spam. Instead, describe the problem and what has been done so far to solve it."

  • Fair enough, not sure which Stack site this would be OK at then.

    Looks like Nov 2021, yeah that is eventually the plan though I need to learn the new D8 module structure. Also it's hard to be convinced to migrate to a version which I find primarily has alpha state modules.
