MySQL Multi-master Replication with Tungsten

By Robert Hodges, CTO, Continuent

Multi-master replication allows applications to apply data to master databases that are located in more than one site.

It is a key technique for implementing geographically dispersed processing, such as credit card processing or on-line test scoring.  Multi-master replication is also very important in software-as-a-service applications, where it enables customer data processing to be spread across multiple databases in a single location as well as across multiple sites.   Tungsten clustering has a number of features designed that allow you to use multi-master replication for your applications.

This highly technical talk will introduce multi-master replication and show how to achieve it with Tungsten.  We will discuss common topologies and provide a demonstration of multi-master replication in action.   Join us to see how to put multi-master replication to work for you today.

Zero-Downtime Maintenance and Upgrade for MySQL with Tungsten

By Robert Hodges, CTO, Continuent

Within the increasing reliability of hardware and software, database maintenance and schema upgrade is now the biggest cause of avoidable downtime in business-critical systems in businesses ranging from SaaS to social networking to large enterprises.

In this highly technical webinar we show how Tungsten clustering allows you to achieve database administration nirvana: maintain hardware, migrate to new database versions, and upgrade SQL schema on MySQL without requiring a maintenance window.

PostgreSQL 9 - Tungsten Clusters with Hot Standby and Streaming Replication

By Robert Hodges, CTO and Linas Virbalas, Senior Software Developer

Hot standby and streaming replication will move the needle forward for high availability and scaling for a wide number of applications. Tungsten already supports clustering using warm standby. In this talk we will describe how to build clusters using the new PostgreSQL features and give our report from the trenches.

This talk will cover how hot standby and streaming replication work from a user perspective, then dive into a description of how to use them, taking Tungsten as an example. We'll cover the following issues:

Please join us for an enlightening presentation a set of PostgreSQL features that are interesting to a wide range of PostgreSQL users.
