IMO The current multi-region tutorials have way too much infra setup inline with what we are actually trying to show, which at its heart is:

  • look at your multi-region cluster's latency before making it officialy "multi-region" from CRDB's POV, it might not be great
  • run some multi-region SQL commands saying which tables should be GLOBAL, REGIONAL
  • cockroach moves chairs around
  • look at your latency again, it's better - yay

It might be better to have in the prerequisites a link to the setups above where we say "do these steps first, then you can come back here and just focus on the SQL API and observing latencies etc"

The page may want to have two tabs:

However all of the above is conditional on whether these simulated non-real-dogfood things even work, so this may not be the thing to do

Next step: test these out
