Software Downloads

Galera Cluster consists of two parts: the Galera Replication Library (galera-3) and a version of MySQL extended with the Write Set Replication (WSREP) API (mysql-wsrep).

Galera Cluster is available as targeted packages and package repositories for a number of Linux distributions, including Ubuntu, Red Hat, Debian, CentOS, OpenSUSE and SLES, as well as FreeBSD. Obtaining packages using a package repository eliminates the need to download individual files and facilitates the deployment and upgrade of Galera nodes.
