MySQL High Availability

• Do you need to ensure that the MySQL database will experience a minimal loss of availability over time?

• Do you want to increase the availability for MySQL?

• Do you need to be able to present a MySQL high availability business case to the managerial positions which will make the final decision?

Then you will find MySQL High Availability is the course for you! This course is designed for experienced database administrators and system architects that want to analyze and form a basis of understanding different high availability options, including clustering and replication solutions within MySQL. This course will provide the tools required to make the decision of what high availability solution is appropriate and how to implement a system with the correct design.

At the completion of this course, you should be able to:

• Describe the implementation of MySQL replication

• Setup a basic master-slave replication environment

• Understand when a master-master or circular replication environment is possible

• Monitor a MySQL replication setup

• Use MySQL replication for advanced tasks such as software upgrades to increase availability

• Analyze the design and limitations of MySQL cluster

• Setup a basic MySQL cluster instance

• Discuss how to integrate MySQL cluster and replication

• Analyze how it is possible to setup MySQL with a shared-disk cluster solution

• Know when you can do active-active and active-passive shared-disk setups

• Understand different shared-disk cluster setups depending upon operating system choices, such as LVM, Windows Cluster Agent, Veritas Cluster Agent, etc.

• Understand the differences with third-party clustering solutions, such as DRBD or m/cluster

• Explore the impact of different backup solutions on highly available solutions

• Identify the effects of different maintenance tasks and how to maintain high availability while performing these operations

• Minimize downtime due to these maintenance tasks

• Describe the future development path of the different solutions

• Develop a plan to implement the appropriate high availability solution

• Analyze the performance impact of a high availability decision

• Recognize the business decision side of the solutions, such as cost and risk
