MySQL High Availability: Tools for Building Robust Data Centers

Overview

Server bottlenecks and failures are a fact of life in any database deployment, but they don't have to bring everything to a halt. To protect your system from outages, MySQL provides several features that work well whether you're running directly on the hardware, on virtual machines, or in the cloud. But to use features such as replication, clusters, and monitoring tools effectively, you need to understand how they work together, and which combination of features will give you ...

Overview

Server bottlenecks and failures are a fact of life in any database deployment, but they don't have to bring everything to a halt. To protect your system from outages, MySQL provides several features that work well whether you're running directly on the hardware, on virtual machines, or in the cloud. But to use features such as replication, clusters, and monitoring tools effectively, you need to understand how they work together, and which combination of features will give you the most reliable system for a price you can afford.

Written by the people who designed these features, MySQL High Availability covers all aspects of reliability and high availability in MySQL from a practical point of view. You'll learn skills essential to any organization that depends on a MySQL database.

Topics include:

  • Replication architecture
  • Tools for replication management
  • Failover strategies
  • Disaster recovery strategies
  • Leveraging the cloud
  • Using the binary log for recovery and troubleshooting
  • Writing replication-friendly SQL
  • Improving response time with memcached
  • Monitoring the server
  • Load balancing
  • Automating common replication tasks
  • MySQL Cluster
  • Diagnostic tools
  • Backup and recovery

Meet the Author

Dr. Charles A Bell is a Senior Software Engineer at Oracle. He is currently the lead developer for backup and a member of the MySQL Backup and Replication team. He lives in a small town in rural Virginia with his loving wife. He received his Doctor of Philosophy in Engineering from Virginia Commonwealth University in 2005. His research interests include database systems, versioning systems, semantic web, and agile software development.

Dr. Mats Kindahl is a senior software developer working on the MySQL server. He is the main architect and implementor of MySQL's row-based replication and is responsible for strategic development of replication, reengineering, and the plugin architecture. Before starting at MySQL, he did research in formal methods, program analysis, and distributed systems, the area where he earned his doctoral degree in computer science. He has also spent many years developing C/C++ compilers and knows more programming languages than he has fingers.

Dr. Lars Thalmann is the development manager for MySQL replication and backup. He is responsible for the strategy and development of these features and leads the corresponding engineering teams. Thalmann has worked with MySQL development since 2001, when he was a software developer working on MySQL Cluster. More recently, he has driven the creation and development of the MySQL backup feature, has guided the evolution of MySQL replication since 2004, and has been a key player in the development of MySQL Cluster replication. Thalmann holds a doctorate in Computer Science from Uppsala University, Sweden.
