RMUG - The Evolution of a MySQL Database System

In this session, we cover the different deployment possibilities of the MySQL architecture depending on the business requirements for the data.
We deploy some architectures and see how to evolve to the next one.
We cover Backups and Point-in-Time Recovery but then we also describe the new MySQL Solutions like InnoDB ReplicaSet, InnoDB Cluster, and InnoDB ClusterSet.
Finally we also cover the new features from MySQL Innovation Releases: Read Replicas and Transparent Read/Write Splitting.

  3. During this presentation I assume that... your system is MySQL

    8.0.35 or more recent (Innovation Release 8.2.0) you are using only InnoDB you have the binary logs enabled the binary logs format is ROW you are using GTIDs Copyright @ 2023 Oracle and/or its affiliates. 6
  4. This is where it all begins... reminder: we ONLY use

    InnoDB we keep the default durability se ings One single MySQL instance Copyright @ 2023 Oracle and/or its affiliates. 9

  14. These are the defaults in MySQL 8.0: Durable Binlogs We

    enable binary logs allowing to replay the modi cations since the last backup: Copyright @ 2023 Oracle and/or its affiliates. 15

  16. Point-in-Time Recovery (PITR) PITR is the technique by which an

    administrator can restore or recover a data set to a certain point in the past. With MySQL, point-in-time recovery involves restoring a dump of the data and then replaying the binlogs from and to a speci c point. This technique is used to: solve an issue perform a live migration Copyright @ 2023 Oracle and/or its affiliates. 17

  29. Point-in-Time Recovery : important concepts (2) As you may have

    noticed, we can only recover at the exact time of the backups and we can only do a one-o recovery from the last one! This is why it is recommended to relocate/o oad the binlogs (to another server, a NAS, the cloud, ...). This will allow for a point-in-time recovery at any moment in time: Copyright @ 2023 Oracle and/or its affiliates. 27

    instance): JS > dba.configureReplicaSetInstance() JS > rs=dba.createReplicaSet('myreplicaset') On the new extra server where only MySQL is installed (server and shell): JS > dba.configureReplicaSetInstance() And again on the main instance (our single instance): JS > rs.addInstance('mysql-2') Copyright @ 2023 Oracle and/or its affiliates. 32

    you only need to use the bootstrap command ! Copyright @ 2023 Oracle and/or its affiliates. 36

  46. MySQL InnoDB Cluster: consistency levels MySQL InnoDB Cluster operates, by

    default, in single-primary mode: Apps and users write to the primary instance What guarantees do we have that: We always read the most up-to-date data? We do not read stale data of an evicted server? Dirty reads do not happen? Copyright @ 2023 Oracle and/or its affiliates. 47
  47. mysql> show variables like 'group_replication_consistency'; +-------------------------------+----------+ | Variable_name | Value

    | +-------------------------------+----------+ | group_replication_consistency | EVENTUAL | +-------------------------------+----------+ MySQL InnoDB Cluster: consistency levels The default consistency level is EVENTUAL. This means that there is no synchronization point for the transactions, when you perform a write on a node, if you immediately read the same data on another node, it is eventually there. Copyright @ 2023 Oracle and/or its affiliates. 48

    | +-------------------------------+----------+ | group_replication_consistency | EVENTUAL | +-------------------------------+----------+ MySQL InnoDB Cluster: consistency levels The default consistency level is EVENTUAL. This means that there is no synchronization point for the transactions, when you perform a write on a node, if you immediately read the same data on another node, it is eventually there. Since MySQL 8.0.16, we have the possibility to set the synchronization point at read or at write or both (globally or for a session). Copyright @ 2023 Oracle and/or its affiliates. 48
  49. Consistency: BEFORE (READ) Copyright @ 2023 Oracle and/or its affiliates.

    As a DBA, I want to load balance my reads without deploying additional restrictions on which server I read from to avoid reading stale data, my group writes are much more than my group reads. 49
  50. Consistency: BEFORE (READ) < > Copyright @ 2023 Oracle and/or

    its affiliates. As a DBA, I want to load balance my reads without deploying additional restrictions on which server I read from to avoid reading stale data, my group writes are much more than my group reads. As a developer, I want specific transactions in my workload to always read up- to-date data from the group, so that whenever that sensitive data is updated, I will enforce that reads shall read the most up to date value. 49
  51. Consistency: AFTER (WRITE) Copyright @ 2023 Oracle and/or its affiliates.

    I want to load balance my reads without deploying additional restrictions on which server I read from to avoid reading stale data, my group writes are much less than my group reads. 51
  52. Consistency: AFTER (WRITE) < > Copyright @ 2023 Oracle and/or

    its affiliates. I want to load balance my reads without deploying additional restrictions on which server I read from to avoid reading stale data, my group writes are much less than my group reads. I have a group that mostly does reads-only, I want my read-write transactions to be applied everywhere once they commit, so that subsequent reads are done on up-to-date data that includes my latest write. Without paying at reads. 51
  53. Consistency: BEFORE_AND_AFTER < > Copyright @ 2023 Oracle and/or its

    affiliates. I want that my application to replicate data as close as possible to synchronous. And of course I'm OK to pay the required price ! 53
