Webinar slides: How to Automate & Manage PostgreSQL with ClusterControlSeveralnines
Running PostgreSQL in production comes with the responsibility for a business critical environment; this includes high availability, disaster recovery, and performance. Ops staff worry whether databases are up and running, if backups are taken and tested for integrity, whether there are performance problems that might affect end user experience, if failover will work properly in case of server failure without breaking applications, and the list goes on.
ClusterControl can be used to operationalize your PostgreSQL footprint across your enterprise. It offers a standard way of deploying high-availability replication setups with auto-failover, integrated with load balancers offering a single endpoint to applications. It provides constant health and performance monitoring through rich dashboards, as well as backup management and point-in-time recovery
See how much time and effort can be saved, as well as risks mitigated, with the help of a unified management platform over the more traditional, manual methods.
We’ve seen a 152% increase in ClusterControl installations by PostgreSQL users last year, so make sure you don’t miss out on the trend!

Webinar slides: How to Manage Replication Failover Processes for MySQL, Maria...Severalnines
Failover is the process of moving to a healthy standby component, during a failure or maintenance event, in order to preserve uptime. The quicker it can be done, the faster you can be back online. However, failover can be tricky for transactional database systems as we strive to preserve data integrity - especially in asynchronous or semi-synchronous topologies. There are risks associated, from diverging datasets to loss of data. Failing over due to incorrect reasoning, e.g., failed heartbeats in the case of network partitioning, can also cause significant harm.
This webinar replay gives a detailed overview of what failover processes may look like in MySQL, MariaDB and PostgreSQL replication setups. We’ve covered the dangers related to the failover process, and discuss the tradeoffs between failover speed and data integrity. We’ve found out about how to shield applications from database failures with the help of proxies. And we've finally had a look at how ClusterControl manages the failover process, and how it can be configured for both assisted and automated failover.
So if you’re looking at minimizing downtime and meet your SLAs through an automated or semi-automated approach, then this webinar replay is for you!
AGENDA

Over the past few years, VidaXL has become a European market leader in the online retail of slow moving consumer goods. When a company achieved over 50% year over year growth for the past 9 years, there is hardly enough time to overhaul existing systems. This means existing systems will be stretched to the maximum of their capabilities, and often additional performance will be gained by utilizing a large variety of datastores.
Polyglot persistence reigns in rapidly growing environments and the traditional one-size-fits-all strategy of monoglots is over.
VidaXL has a broad landscape of datastores, ranging from traditional SQL data stores, like MySQL or PostgreSQL alongside more recent load balancing technologies such as ProxySQL, to document stores like MongoDB and search engines such as SOLR and Elasticsearch.
Webinar slides: Free Monitoring (on Steroids) for MySQL, MariaDB, PostgreSQL ...Severalnines
Traditional server monitoring tools are not built for modern distributed database architectures. Let’s face it, most production databases today run in some kind of high availability setup - from simpler master-slave replication to multi-master clusters fronted by redundant load balancers. Operations teams deal with dozens, often hundreds of services that make up the database environment.
This is why we built ClusterControl - to address modern, highly distributed database setups based on replication or clustering. We wanted something that could provide a systems view of all the components of a distributed cluster, including load balancers.
Watch this replay of a webinar on free database monitoring using ClusterControl Community Edition. We show you how to monitor all your MySQL, MariaDB, PostgreSQL and MongoDB systems from a single point of control - whether they are deployed as Galera Clusters, sharded clusters or replication setups across on-prem and cloud data centers. We also see how to use Advisors in order to improve performance.
AGENDA

Webinar slides: How to Measure Database Availability?Severalnines
Database availability is notoriously hard to measure and report on, although it is an important KPI in any SLA between you and your customer. We often define availability in terms of 9’s (e.g. 99.9% or 99.999%), although there is often a lack of understanding of what these numbers might mean, or how we can measure them.
Is the database available if an instance is up and running, but it is unable to serve any requests? Or if response times are excessively long, so that users consider the service unusable? Is the impact of one longer outage the same as multiple shorter outages? How do partial outages affect database availability, where some users are unable to use the service while others are completely unaffected?
Not agreeing on precise definitions with your customer might lead to dissatisfaction. The database team might be reporting that they have met their availability goals, while the customer is dissatisfied with the service. In this webinar, we will discuss the different factors that affect database availability. We will then see how you can measure your database availability in a realistic way.
AGENDA
- Defining availability targets
- Critical business functions
- Customer needs
- Duration and frequency of downtime

Connector Corner: Automate dynamic content and events by pushing a buttonDianaGray10
Here is something new! In our next Connector Corner webinar, we will demonstrate how you can use a single workflow to:
Create a campaign using Mailchimp with merge tags/fields
Send an interactive Slack channel message (using buttons)
Have the message received by managers and peers along with a test email for review
But there’s more:
In a second workflow supporting the same use case, you’ll see:
Your campaign sent to target colleagues for approval
If the “Approve” button is clicked, a Jira/Zendesk ticket is created for the marketing design team
But—if the “Reject” button is pushed, colleagues will be alerted via Slack message
Join us to learn more about this new, human-in-the-loop capability, brought to you by Integration Service connectors.

Epistemic Interaction - tuning interfaces to provide information for AI supportAlan Dix
Paper presented at SYNERGY workshop at AVI 2024, Genoa, Italy. 3rd June 2024
https://alandix.com/academic/papers/synergy2024-epistemic/
As machine learning integrates deeper into human-computer interactions, the concept of epistemic interaction emerges, aiming to refine these interactions to enhance system adaptability. This approach encourages minor, intentional adjustments in user behaviour to enrich the data available for system learning. This paper introduces epistemic interaction within the context of human-system communication, illustrating how deliberate interaction design can improve system understanding and adaptation. Through concrete examples, we demonstrate the potential of epistemic interaction to significantly advance human-computer interaction by leveraging intuitive human communication strategies to inform system design and functionality, offering a novel pathway for enriching user-system engagements.

Copyright 2011 Severalnines AB Control your database infrastructure 12
13. Backup and Restore
• The following should be backed up in MySQL Cluster
– NDBCLUSTER tables
– MySQL System tables (stored in MYISAM)
– MYISAM/INNODB tables – optional
– Binary logs (optional)
– Configuration files (config.ini and my.cnf)
Copyright 2011 Severalnines AB Control your database infrastructure 13
14. Backup and Restore
• NDBCLUSTER tables
– ONLINE BACKUP is built into MySQL Cluster
• Only tables stored in the NDBCLUSTER storage engine can be
backed up ONLINE.
• INNOB/MYISAM tables
– mysqldump
– Oracle Hotbackup
• Binary logs
– Copy/rsync
• Config files
– Copy/rsync
Copyright 2011 Severalnines AB Control your database infrastructure 14
15. Online Backup
START BACKUP
• Backups are started from the
management client or mgmapi
– ndb_mgm –e “START BACKUP” Management server
• Each data node will backup its
STORAGE LAYER
primary partition
– Consistent at “backup complete” DATA DATA
“backup start” time, as you wish NODE 1 NODE 2
• Thus the complete backup is P0 P1
spread over several computers S1 S0
Copyright 2011 Severalnines AB Control your database infrastructure 15
16. Online Backup
START BACKUP
• Backups are written to a backup directory: Management server
– Default : DATADIR
– BACKUP_DATADIR STORAGE LAYER
• BACKUP_DATADIR can be
a mount point on a SAN. DATA
NODE 1
DATA
NODE 2
• Each backup gets an ID
– Starting from 1 and always incrementing P0 P1
S1 S0
• The backup consists of three files:
– Data file (the records in data memory)
• Backup-1.data
– Log file (changes during the backup)
• Backup-1.log
– Meta data (indexes and tables) /data/mysqlcluster/BACKUP/BACKUP-1
• Backup-1.ctl
Copyright 2011 Severalnines AB Control your database infrastructure 16
17. Backup and Restore
• Exercise – BACKUP
Copyright 2011 Severalnines AB Control your database infrastructure 17
18. Restore
• The ndb_restoreprogram is used to a MySQL Cluster
backup.
• A backup taken from two data nodes will have two
sets of backup files
– A backup taken from four data nodes will have four sets of
backup files.
• All backup sets must be restored
– Ndb_restore can restore one backup set at a time.
– Exception – meta data needs to be restored only once.
Copyright 2011 Severalnines AB Control your database infrastructure 18
19. Restore
• Two data nodes with id=2 and id=3, backup id=1
• To restore the meta data (needs to be executed only
once):
ndb_restore –c<connectstring> --restore_meta
--node-id=2 --backup-id=1 /path/to/backup/files
• To restore the data and logs – must be executed
once for each backup set:
ndb_restore –c<connectstring> --restore_data
--node-id=2 --backup-id=1 /path/to/backup/files
ndb_restore –c<connectstring> --restore_data
--node-id=3 --backup-id=1 /path/to/backup/files
Copyright 2011 Severalnines AB Control your database infrastructure 19
20. Backup and Restore
• Exercise – Restore
Copyright 2011 Severalnines AB Control your database infrastructure 20
21. Backup and Restore
• SeveralninesClusterControl allows you to:
– Backup data to a central location instead of having the
backup files spread out of X computers.
– Create backup schedules
– Check backup history
– Restore backups easily
Copyright 2011 Severalnines AB Control your database infrastructure 21
22. Geographical Redundancy
• Uses the Normal MySQL Replication to transfer data
between a Master and a Slave.
– Binary logs
– Positions as offsets in the files.
• Added extra information to allow failover.

34. Staging the slave
• The slave cluster is staged by restoring a backup
from the Master Cluster
– ndb_restore … -e
• -e - restore epoch
• The –e is very important, otherwise the slave cluster will not get
the last applied epoch written in ndb_apply_status table.
• The last applied epoch will be the epoch when the backup
finished.
Copyright 2011 Severalnines AB Control your database infrastructure 34
35. Geographical Redundancy
• It is also possible to have conflict detection and
resolution.
• Out of scope in this training.
Copyright 2011 Severalnines AB Control your database infrastructure 35
36. Geographical Redundancy
• Exercise – setup Geo rep.
Copyright 2011 Severalnines AB Control your database infrastructure 36
37. Management and Administration
Offline and online operations
Copyright 2011 Severalnines AB Control your database infrastructure 37
38. Online/offline Operations
• Online Operation
– There can still be traffic on the Cluster while the operation is
taking place
– No Service Interruption
• Offline Operation
– Traffic needs to be blocked in order to implement the
change.
– Service Interruption
Copyright 2011 Severalnines AB Control your database infrastructure 38
39. Online operations
• Adding nodes
– Adding data nodes
– Adding mysql servers
• Changing configuration
– values except
• Hostnames
• NoOfReplicas
• Upgrade
– Software
– Hardware
– OS
• Schema modifications
– Add column (ALTER ONLINE TABLE… ADD COLUMN x
INT)
– Create Index / Drop Index
Copyright 2011 Severalnines AB Control your database infrastructure 39
40. Offline operations
• NoOfReplicas=2 3
– Requires a backup and restore
• Schema Changes
– data types, column sizes, names
– The table in question must be locked:
• On all mysql servers except one: LOCK TABLE t1 READ;
• On the exception: ALTER TABLE t1 MODIFY b CHAR(255);
• UNLOCK TABLES;
Copyright 2011 Severalnines AB Control your database infrastructure 40
42. Monitoring MySQL Cluster
• MySQL Cluster offers the following monitoring
interfaces
– NDBINFO - containing system tables stored accessible from
the mysql server
– LOGEVENTs – subscribe using the mgmapi
• SeveralninesClusterControl collects information from
both these sources.
– Web interface
– Command line tools
Copyright 2011 Severalnines AB Control your database infrastructure 42
43. NDBINFO
• The NDBINFO (MySQL Cluster 7.1 and later) is a
schema containing statistical counters collected from
the data nodes.
– Memory usage (memoryusage)
– Statistical counters (counters)
– Redo log information (logspaces)
– Redo buffer information (logbuffers)
– Disk page buffer memory stats (diskpagebuffer)
• All this information is also collected by
SeveralninesClusterControl.
Copyright 2011 Severalnines AB Control your database infrastructure 43
44. How do you spot issues?
• ClusterControl can assist
– Query Monitoring/Histogram
– Health Reports
– Configuration Management
• You can also watch our video describing how to find
configuration issues:

49. Reporting
• Best practice is to separate reporting from the real-
time database.
– Running reporting on a realtime database will affect
performance.
• From MySQL Cluster it is possible to replicate to an
InnodbMySQL server.
– Run the reporting/heavy queries on this server.

51. Reporting
• How to set it up
– http://johanandersson.blogspot.com/2009/05/ha-mysql-write-
scaling-using-cluster-to.html
• If one master fails, the reporting slave can failover to
the other master
– No data loss
• If the reporting slave fails – restart it
– The reporting slave can reconnect and resume.
Copyright 2011 Severalnines AB Control your database infrastructure 51
52. Management and Administration
Single User Mode
Copyright 2011 Severalnines AB Control your database infrastructure 52
53. Single User Mode
• MySQL Cluster has a Single User Mode that it is
possible to enter. In practice it is rarely used.
• ndb_mgm> ENTER SINGLE USER MODE 7
– This means that only an application with Nodeid=7 is
allowed to connect and operate on MySQL Cluster
– All other applications will be blocked
• ndb_mgm> EXIT SINGLE USER MODE
– Only useful if you have a dedicated adminstrative MySQL
Server.
– Then you “lock” the database and you can do offline ALTER
TABLEs from this MySQL Server.
Copyright 2011 Severalnines AB Control your database infrastructure 53
54. Management and Administration
Scaling MySQL Cluster
Copyright 2011 Severalnines AB Control your database infrastructure 54
55. Scaling MySQL Cluster
• MySQL Cluster consists of two layers that can be
scaled
– Data/storage Layer
– Access Layer (mysql servers, application nodes)
• But how to know when it is time to scale?
• The following variables need to be studied
– Network
• Iftop
– Disk
• Iostat
– CPU
• top
• vmstat
Copyright 2011 Severalnines AB Control your database infrastructure 55
56. SQL Layer/Access Layer
• To determine if the SQL Layer / Access Layer needs
to be scaled, it is sufficient to look at the CPU
utilization. (Network saturation is not very common).
– However if CPU utlization is low AND cpu utilization is low
on the data nodes the requests are spending time in the
network.
• Optimize those request (better indexes, force index etc)
• MySQL Servers can be added online, just install the
binaries, issue GRANTs and start the MySQL Server.
– Make sure you have connection slots available.
• With SeveralninesClusterControl, a new MySQL
Server can be provisioned with a single click.
Copyright 2011 Severalnines AB Control your database infrastructure 56
57. Data Layer / Storage Layer
• Network
– Is the network fully utilized (this is very very seldom the
case)?
• CPU
– What is the %util of the TC, LQH or CMVMI threads?
– cat /data/mysqlcluster/ndb_X_out.log |greptid
• The PIDs of the different threads are printed out
– top –Hd1
• Is one of the threads mentioned above running at 100%
• If yes add data node (one node group needs to be added at
a time).
Copyright 2011 Severalnines AB Control your database infrastructure 57
58. Data Layer / Storage Layer
• Disk
– iostat –kx 1
– Is the ioutil at 100%?
• If yes by better disks, checkpoint with a lower rate, increase
redo log size,
• It is also possible to add more data nodes in order to spread
out the write load across more instances.
• Check if the write back cache is enabled, if not, enable it.
– Note – E.g EC2 disks are inherently slow.
DiskCheckpointSpeed should be set lower, e.g 5MB/s.

59. Add Data Node Online
• There are two way of adding data nodes
– Dynamically / “Hard” - edit config.ini
• Cons: You must perform a rolling restart
– Statically / “Easy”: Plan ahead and allocate “slots” for data
nodes at configuration time
• Cons: You must know the hostnames from the beginning.
• Pros: Easy
• Start with 2 data nodes but configure for 8 data nodes
• It is not possible to shrink the number of data nodes.

60. Dynamic - Add Data Node Online
• Edit config.ini and add:
[NDBD]
Nodeid:X
Hostname=„newhost1‟
[NDBD]
Nodeid:Y
Hostname=„newhost2‟
• Perform a rolling restart in the following order:
– Restart the management servers
– Restart the mysql servers
– Restart the already existing data nodes
– Start the data nodes on „newhost1‟ and „newhost2‟
ndbmtd --initial

61. “Static/plan ahead”- Add Data Node Online
• In config.ini before you start Cluster the first time
[NDBD]
Nodeid:X
Nodegroup: 65536 (magic number)
Hostname=„newhost1‟
[NDBD]
Nodeid:Y
Nodegroup: 65536 (magic number)
Hostname=„newhost2‟
• To add data nodes simply start the data nodes on
„newhost1‟ and „newhost2‟
– ndbmtd –initial
• Note, in some releases the magic number is 65535.

62. Add Data Node Online
• In any case the final step is to redistribute the data.
• Foreach table do:
– ALTER TABLE t1 REORGANIZE PARTITION
• This will rehash the table
• This is an ONLINE operation.
• It will take some time.

• However, it is not a common task to add data nodes.
Increasing/decreasing # mysql servers is more
common.

Severalnines has been offering its products free of charge since 2007, while the founders were employed at MySQL. These products are the de-facto standard tools to assist MySQL customers and users in deploying their MySQL clusters. More information about Severalnines at www.severalnines.com
Dear Jury, Just as the electric grid revolutionized access to electricity 100 years ago, we at Severalnines believe that Cloud Computing will revolutionize IT where organizations will be able to plug into extremely powerful computing resources over the network. We have already seen the beginnings of this new wave, where the current infrastructure stack is being challenged and disrupted by a whole set of new technologies. For instance, in the database market, over 40 startups have received funding over the past 18 months. Severalnines is not building yet another database product, we believe there are already a lot of good technologies available. To manage a database costs 4 times the purchase price, and yet, very few companies are addressing this problem. Severalnines focuses on solutions to address this underserved segment. The founders of the company have a solid background in databases, having been at MySQL since 2003. The company develops a management platform which is database and cloud agnostic.We are database independent since we do not know who, if anybody, will be the next MySQL of the cloud.We are cloud independent, since we do not want to depend on any cloud vendor (e.g. Amazon or Rackspace) to avoid vendor lock-in. After the Amazon EC2 downtime during the Easter break, hundreds of affected companies have realized the importance of this. There is also a commercial aspect for avoiding vendor lock-in. Severalnines enhances productivity of organizations by attacking the biggest cost associated with database systems. We are a Swedish startup, hosted by SICS in Kista. There is also a small but very efficient development capacity in Singapore. Just as MySQL became a major brand and placed Sweden on the global software infrastructure map, we believe Severalnines can become a serious global player in the emerging Cloud space. We are very thankful that an organization like Eurocloud exists, and would like to thank the jury for considering our application. Kind regards,Vinay Joosery Severalnines AB
