Planning for Disaster Recovery (DR) with Galera Cluster
Length: 50 minWe talk a lot about Galera Cluster being great for High Availability, but what about Disaster Recovery (DR)? Database outages can occur when you lose a data centre due to data center power outages or natural disaster, so why not plan appropriately in advance?
We will discuss the business considerations including achieving the highest possible uptime, analysis business impact as well as risk, focus on disaster recovery itself, as well as discussing various scenarios, from having no offsite data to having synchronous replication to another data centre.
This webinar will cover MySQL with Galera Cluster, as well as branches MariaDB Galera Cluster as well as Percona XtraDB Cluster (PXC). We will focus on architecture solutions, DR scenarios and have you on your way to success at the end of it.
Running Galera Cluster on Microsoft Azure
Length: 50 minDo you want to run Galera Cluster in the Microsoft cloud? Why not learn to setup a 3-node Galera Cluster using Microsoft Azure Compute Virtual Machines, and run it yourself. In this webinar, we will cover the steps to do this, with a demonstration of how easy it is for you to do.
In addition, we will cover why you may want to run a 3-node (or more) Galera Cluster (active-active multi-master clusters) instead of (or in addition to) using Azure Database for MySQL or MariaDB. We will also cover cost comparisons.
Learn about storage options, backup & recovery, as well as monitoring & metrics options for the “roll your own Galera Cluster” in Azure.
Running Galera Cluster on Amazon EC2 and comparing it to RDS and Aurora
Length: 56 minutesDo you want to run Galera Cluster in the cloud? Why not learn to setup a 3-node Galera Cluster using Amazon Web Services (AWS) Elastic Compute Cloud (EC2), and run it yourself?
In this webinar, we will cover the steps to do this, with a demonstration of how easy it is for you to do. We will also cover how you may want to load balance traffic to your Galera Cluster using a proxy like ProxySQL.
In addition, we will cover why you may want to run a 3-node (or more) Galera Cluster (multi-master synchronous clusters) instead of using Amazon Relational Database Service (RDS) MySQL, which has the ability to have asynchronous replication (Read Replicas), and High Availability provided by DRBD (Multi-AZ). We will also cover where Galera Cluster differs from Amazon Aurora RDS for MySQL.
Learn about storage options, backup & recovery, as well as monitoring & metrics options for the “roll your own Galera Cluster” in EC2.
The MySQL High Availability Landscape and where Galera Cluster fits in
Length: 60 minutesThe MySQL Server High Availability landscape provides with a slew of tools to help you ensure that your databases keep humming. Such tools are Galera Cluster, however, it is worth looking at semi-synchronous replication with failover tools, and also the usual leader-follower asynchronous replication. Today more workloads are moving to the cloud, and what failover options do you get with Amazon RDS for MySQL or even Aurora? What about the newfangled group replication and InnoDB Cluster? And let us not forget that Galera Cluster has spawned branches too!
Galera Cluster® Best Practices: DDL and Schema Upgrades
Length: 52We will show how Galera Cluster executes DDLs in a safe, consistent manner across all the nodes in the cluster, and the differences with stand-alone MySQL. We will discuss how to prepare for and successfully carry out a schema upgrade and the considerations that need to be taken into account during the process.
TAKING FULL ADVANTAGE OF MULTI-MASTER GALERA CLUSTER®
Length: 47 MINIn this part, we will discuss important topics related to multi-master setups:
* Practical considerations when using Galera in a multi-master setup
* Evaluating the characteristics of your database workload
* Preparing your application for multi-master
* Detecting and dealing with transaction conflicts
Galera Cluster Best Practices for DBAs and DevOps part 1
Length: 50 minIn the first part of Galera Cluster best practices series, we will discuss the following topics:
* ongoing monitoring of the cluster and detection of bottlenecks;
* fine-tuning the configuration based on the actual database workload;
* selecting the optimal State Snapshot Transfer (SST) method;
* backup strategies
Using Galera Replication to Create Geo-distributed Clusters on the WAN webinar video
Length: 55 minWe will show the advantages of having a geo-distributed database cluster and how to create one using Galera Cluster for MySQL. We will also discuss the configuration and status variables that are involved and how to deal with typical situations on the WAN such as slow, untrusted or unreliable links, latency and packet loss. We will demonstrate a multi-region cluster on Amazon EC2 and perform some throughput and latency measurements in real-time.
Migrating to Multi-Master Galera Cluster from Master-Slave MySQL Replication
Length:This video provides the practical aspects of migrating a database setup based on traditional asynchronous replication to multi-master Galera Cluster. We will discuss the benefits Galera provides and how traditional replication settings, architecture and practices can be converted to Galera Cluster. We will show the steps that are needed to perform the migration with limited or no downtime, and will demonstrate the procedure in practice using a live database with an actual workload.
Galera Cluster Installation and Quick Start
Length: 1 hourThis video describes how to get started with Galera Cluster and build a functional multi-master cluster.
Once the nodes are up and running we will discuss how to monitor the health of the cluster and which status variables are important to watch.
