Abstract

Galera Replication is synchronous multi-master replication solution for MySQL/InnoDB, providing nice features like:

  • Multi-master operation with automatic resolving of write conflicts
  • Synchronous replication => no lost transactions
  • Parallel slave applying => write scalability
  • Client transparency => looks and feels like native InnoDB

In this presentation we will show the state of Galera Replication project focusing in the very new features brought in with the latest 0.8 and 1.0 releases, .e.g.:

  • Supporting MySQL 5.5
  • TLS (SSL v3) communication
  • Light weight arbitrator component (garb) for WAN use cases

We will also outline the common Galera use cases, like master-slave, multi-master and WAN replication topologies, and discuss the potential performance gain with multi-master operation.
