That's just per-model database annotation. It's not enough for use cases like: data sharding, switching reader/writer endpoints at runtime, and a few others. I wouldn't count the basic case as "multi-db support"


I built a Rails app with exactly that set up: sharding, dynamic switching of read/write queries across multiple slaves 10 years ago. It wasn't hard at all. Ruby's full dynamic nature makes many things easy.


Yes, I mentioned it too https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=24937220 - it's relatively easy to add this if needed. But I would not describe it as supported natively.
