Many MySQL users are running their database in business critical areas. This requires high-availability and ideally 24/7 up-time because more and more end-customers are located around the world. With traditional MySQL HA solution this requirements are partially achievable. But the solutions are not as comfortable as one could expect.
Luckily since a few years there is a new Open Source solution in the market: Galera Cluster for MySQL. This solution provides synchronous multi-master replication on several nodes where you can write to any node without considering if it is a Master or a Slave. A rolling cluster restart allows upgrades of the system during full operations.
In this presentation we have a rough look how Galera Cluster for MySQL is set-up, configured and operated. If there is enough time we will see a live demo.
