It goes without saying that database security is top priority at Continuent; Tungsten Clustering customers in financial and healthcare organizations among others implement the strictest standards of data security, and so we have always kept it a mandate to not only support HIPPA and PII compliance, and maintain strict boundaries and protocols in design of our software solution and when providing support.

Migrating from Galera to Tungsten Clustering is easy with the tools provided by Tungsten Clustering. Because replication happens in the background, applications can stay online with a quick cutover to Tungsten Clustering when ready.

For the sixth in the Competitor Comparison series in which we look at the main solutions for MySQL high availability, disaster recovery and geographic distribution, I got a chance to interview Matt Lang, Customer Success Director, Americas at Continuent. We focused on highly available, geo-scale, multi-region MySQL for mission-critical sites and apps with Do-it-Yourself (DIY) solutions as compared to MySQL clustering with Continuent Tungsten, the only complete, fully-integrated clustering solution for MySQL - on-premises, in the cloud, hybrid-cloud or multi-cloud.

This is the fifth blog in our ‘High Noon’ comparison series in which we look at the main solutions for MySQL high availability, disaster recovery and geographic distribution. Here we focus on highly available, geo-scale, multi-region MySQL for mission-critical sites and apps with Oracle’s InnoDB Cluster as compared to MySQL clusters with Continuent Tungsten, the only complete, fully-integrated clustering solution for MySQL - on-premises, in the cloud, hybrid-cloud or multi-cloud.

Explore and de-mystify the various Tungsten Cluster Topologies. Get a clear understanding of each topology and how they compare.

Following on from our recent newsletter and the message from Eero Teerikorpi, Founder and CEO, in this blog I will set out the outline and plan for the work we are currently undertaking to make a number of changes within the terminology used in our product and communications.

This blog discusses some best practices for using multiple filesystems on MySQL database servers and how to achieve the best performance with them, while avoiding some of the possible pitfalls.

Watch the replay of a webinar with our colleagues from Datavail and hosted by DBTA during which we discuss whether “free” is really good enough for business-critical MySQL database environments.

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.

Tungsten Clustering provides high availability, disaster recovery, and a host of other benefits for MySQL / MariaDB / Percona Server databases. In this blog post we will explore some of the shell aliases I use every day to administer various Tungsten Clusters.

Where are the logs for a Tungsten Cluster and which are the proper log files to monitor if I do a master role switch to another node?
