MySQL Replication HOWTO

Monday, September 14, 2009

I've just published a short video showing how to set up MySQL replication between a single master and slave at /mysql-replication-howto. This video also demonstrates transaction loss in the case of a master server failure.

When we built dbShards we needed a reliable replication solution so that we could failover in the case of a single node failing but without losing any transactions, which is why we had to build our own reliable replication technology once we had ruled out other replication solutions (including regular MySQL replication and DRBD).
