by MariaDB Announce List 26 Mar '13

26 Mar '13

Are you planning on being in Santa Clara for Percona Live: MySQL Conference and Expo in April? Not attending Percona Live but can make it to Santa Clara, California for a free one day conference? If so, we invite you to join us (the MariaDB developers), and SkySQL for the 2nd Annual MySQL® & Cloud Database Solutions Day on Friday, April 26, 2013 at the Hyatt Regency Santa Clara. This event is taking place directly after the Percona Live event because that's when we'll be in town, but as mentioned above, even if you're not attending Percona Live, you're still welcome to attend. During this free one-day event, there will be hands-on training and consulting on MariaDB and MySQL database solutions. Michael (Monty) Widenius, founder of MariaDB and original co-author of MySQL, will be there along with many of the core MariaDB developers. The event will feature two technical tracks: one focused on MariaDB, MySQL, and related technologies, and the second on best practices for deploying database applications in the Cloud. In addition to Monty, speakers will include representatives from Calpont, Codership, Craigslist, MariaDB, SkySQL, and the OpenStack Foundation. Take a look at the event schedule, featured speakers, and venue and please register today (even though the event is free, there isn't unlimited space and SkySQL needs to know how many people to plan for). http://info.skysql.com/roadshow2013-0 A blog post on the event: http://www.skysql.com/blogs/kathoneil27/exciting-group-speakers-mysql-cloud… If you're unable to join us in Santa Clara, we will be attending other events put on by SkySQL in different cities around the world.

It is fully read-write scalable, comes with synchronous replication, allows multi-master topologies, and guarantees no lag or lost transactions. Some of its features & benefits are listed below. Features * Synchronous replication * Active-active multi-master topology * Read and write to any cluster node * Automatic membership control, with failed nodes dropped from the cluster * Automatic node joining * True row-level parallel replication * Direct client connections, native MariaDB/MySQL look & feel Benefits The above features yield several benefits for a database clustering solution, including: * No slave lag * No lost transactions * Both read and write scalability * Smaller client latencies Technology MariaDB Galera Cluster uses the Galera Library for the replication implementation. http://codership.com/products/galera_replication To interface with Galera replication, we have enhanced MariaDB to support the replication API definition in the Write Set REPlication (https://launchpad.net/wsrep) project. The implementation of the replication API in MariaDB happens in the open source MySQL-wsrep project. http://www.codership.com/products/mysql-write-set-replication-project - - Operations Support - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Once you run MariaDB Galera Cluster in production you want to make sure there is a helping hand available whenever needed.
