- 3. The MySQL Availability Company Continuent Tungsten: Value Proposition Availability - Continuous MySQL Operations • What is the cost/impact of downtime to your business? • How long will it take me to get my database back up and running? (RTO) • Will I be able to recover all of my data? (RPO) • How many people at what skill level do I need to do this? Scalability - Growing MySQL to Support the Business Needs • What is my customer’s experience when getting results back? • How can my dataset be served to users worldwide? • How can my business best leverage our required infrastructure spend? What does Tungsten Clustering do and what business needs does it satisfy?
- 4. The MySQL Availability Company Continuent Tungsten: Clustering 101 Clustering is Powerful – Infrastructure-Grade Software Running Enterprises Worldwide • Tungsten keeps your data available by gracefully moving writes and reads to another node: • Automatically in the event of a failure • Manually for maintenance • Automatically based on the rules for reads • The magic happens at the Connector, which is always informed of the cluster’s state by the various Managers. In the event of either a failure, or a human request, the Connectors are signaled by the Managers to route the application’s requests to a new destination within the cluster. Monitoring & Control Data Service Manager Replicator Replica Manager Replicator Primary Manager Replicator Replica
- 5. The MySQL Availability Company Continuent Tungsten: Clustering 101 Clustering is Easy to Understand! • At it’s core, a cluster is a bunch of Linux-based server nodes working together to provide a unified view of your database to the rest of the world. These can be bare metal, VM’s or cloud instances. • In a single cluster, one Primary node handles the writes, and the rest of the nodes are Replicas which get copies of the writes. • There are three moving parts on a single cluster node: • Manager – the process that controls and health checks the cluster • Replicator – the process that moves MySQL write events from the Primary binary logs to the Replicas asynchronously • Connector – the intelligent proxy which routes your application’s MySQL requests to the correct database node • There are two types of clusters: • Standalone (local) – typically 3 nodes in a single data center or region • Composite (global) - a “cluster of clusters”, 2 or more standalone clusters managed as one, capable of spanning the globe Monitoring & Control Data Service Manager Replicator Replica Manager Replicator Primary Manager Replicator Replica

- 8. The MySQL Availability Company Continuent Tungsten: Value Proposition Availability - Continuous MySQL Operations • What is the cost/impact of downtime to your business? • Tungsten minimizes the cost and impact to your business by providing database availability with ease • How long will it take me to get my database back up and running? (RTO) • Tungsten keeps your data available by gracefully moving writes to another node (reads too!) • Automatically – handle node or cluster-level failures without human intervention • Manually – invoked by a human when desired • Will I be able to recover all of my data? (RPO) • Tungsten keeps one or more copies of your database asynchronously. Under normal conditions, Tungsten will recover all of your data • How many people at what skill level do I need to do this? • Tungsten Clustering automates failover and recovery saving you countless hours of labor • Tungsten 24/7 Support is available in less than three (3) minutes notice** for urgent support needs Scalability – Growing MySQL to Support the Business Needs • How can my dataset be served to users worldwide? • Composite clusters span sites – a “cluster of clusters” • Active/Passive Composite Clustering – performing writes at a single site and replicating those events to all other sites • Active/Active Composite Clustering – performing writes at multiple sites worldwide and replicating those events to all other sites • How can my business best leverage our required infrastructure spend? • Read/Write Splitting – speed up reads and improve write performance by leveraging Replicas • Increase node count - handle more reads per cluster ** The actual average response time during the past five years Why is Tungsten Clustering is Worth Every Cent?
- 9. The MySQL Availability Company Tungsten Clustering Value: Availability Availability – Continuous MySQL Operations What is the cost/impact of downtime to your business? • Tungsten keeps your data available by gracefully moving writes to another node (reads too!) • Geographic Spheres Of High Availability/Disaster Recovery Influence • Local High Availability (HA) – within one datacenter, site or region • Global Disaster Recovery (DR) – across data centers, sites, regions and cloud providers – scale across the world! • Automatic and Manual High Availability • Automatic – handle node or cluster-level failures without human intervention • Local failover – handle a node-level Primary outage automatically • Global failover – automatic traffic routing to another site if an entire site fails for the following topologies: • Composite Active/Active – write to multiple sites • Dynamic Active/Active – writing to a single site • Manual – invoked by a human when desired (Zero-Downtime Maintenance and CAP Recovery) • Typically used for hardware maintenance and OS upgrades/patching • Local switch – Move writes to another node in the same cluster/site (the write Primary role moves to the best replica in the same cluster) • Global switch - Move the write Primary role to another node in a different cluster/site (Primary moves to the best replica in a remote cluster) • Composite Active/Passive (CAP) regional failover – for global active/passive clusters, there is no automatic site- level failover by design. A business decision is made to fail over to a remote site and a human invokes it. This is done to prevent flapping due to variable worldwide network conditions. Tungsten Clustering Is Worth Your Spend to Keep Your Business Up and Running!!
- 10. The MySQL Availability Company Tungsten Clustering Value: Scalability Scalability – Growing MySQL to Support the Business Needs How can my dataset be served to users worldwide? • Active/Passive Clustering • Perform writes at a single site worldwide • Replicate those events to all other sites • Active/Active Clustering • Perform writes at multiple sites worldwide • Replicate those events to all other sites How can my business support increasing customer read traffic and best leverage our required infrastructure spend? • Read/Write Splitting – use existing Replica nodes for reads to scale without spending more money • Improve write performance by offloading reads from the Primary, freeing up resources for writes • Speed up reads by getting events from Replicas, since all nodes have the same THL as the Primary • Local read splitting – read from Replicas instead of the Primary when available • Global read splitting – read from Replicas in the region closest to the customer • Increase node count – if you outgrow existing node capacity, easily add more nodes to scale up • Handle more reads per cluster • Additional Replicas may be dedicated for purposes like backups or archives Tungsten Clustering Is Worth Your Spend to Allow Your Database To Keep Pace with Your Business!
