Latency-sensitive applications running in Java sometimes experience unacceptable delays under heavy I/O load. This blog discusses why this problem occurs and what to do about it for applications running Tungsten Clustering for MySQL.
Continuent has traditionally had a relaxed policy about Linux platform support for customers using our products.
While it is possible to install and run Continuent Tungsten products (i.e. Cluster/Replicator/etc.) inside Docker containers, there are many reasons why this is not a good idea.
This blog explains why the Tungsten rollback error exists and why it's important.
In this blog post we will discuss how the managed cross-site replication streams work in a Composite Multi-Master Tungsten Cluster for MySQL, MariaDB and Percona Server.
This blog covers INI vs Staging configurations for Secure Shell.
In this blog post we will discuss how to best integrate various Continuent-bundled cluster monitoring solutions with PagerDuty (pagerduty.com), a popular alerting service.

One important way to protect your MySQL / MariaDB / Percona Server data is to keep your Tungsten Clustering software up-to-date; but how can you achieve this with zero-downtime?
Learn about the two different methods for installing, updating and upgrading Tungsten Clustering software for MySQL / MariaDB / Percona Server.
A robust monitoring setup is essential for cluster health and viability - if your replicator goes offline and you do not know about it, then that Replica becomes effectively useless because it has stale data. This means keeping a close watch on the health of the MySQL / MariaDB / Percona Server database nodes from many perspectives, from ensuring sufficient disk space to testing that replication traffic is flowing.
