This blog article discusses why and how we use Ansible (automation tool for pre-configuring MySQL servers) for Tungsten purposes at Continuent, including a step by step description on how to use Ansible (including source code).

Our team has continued to pave the way for Continuous MySQL Operations this year with our Continuent Tungsten products: Tungsten Clustering and Tungsten Replicator. With this blog we’d like to take the opportunity to thank you all for your support in 2019, and celebrate some of our successes with you.

Why does the DIY approach fail to deliver vs. the Tungsten Clustering solution for geo-distributed MySQL multimaster deployments? Before we dive into the 10 reasons, note why commercially-supported enterprise software is less risky and in fact less costly.

Our colleague Matt Lang walks you through a comparison of building a global, multi-region MySQL / MariaDB / Percona cloud back-end using AWS Aurora versus Continuent Tungsten.

Enterprises require high availability for their business-critical applications. Even the smallest unplanned outage or even a planned maintenance operation can cause lost sales, productivity, and erode customer confidence. Additionally, updating and retrieving data needs to be robust to keep up with user demand.

In this AWS re:Invent talk excerpt, Tyler Turk (Infrastructure Engineer, Riot Games) discusses how the Riot team was able to migrate eight disparate database clusters into AWS as a single composite database cluster replicated in four different AWS regions, provisioned with terraform, and managed and operated by Ansible.
