Tungsten Proxy Routing: A Matter of Affinity
How the Continuent Proxy selects database cluster nodes for executing read operations.
Connection Basics: For Zero Downtime Geographically-Distributed Apps
This blog provides basic information about business-critical application to database connections; my team focuses on MySQL, MariaDB, and Percona Server for MySQL on Linux/Unix that’s infrastructure-agnostic (on-prem, VM, hybrid-cloud, cloud, multi-cloud, etc.).
Intelligent Database Proxies: Routing & Transparent Failover - Watch The On-Demand Webinar
View this presentation to learn about two types of (MySQL) database proxies, which we refer to as ‘fast & simple proxy’ and ‘intelligent proxy’; and how transparent failover and read-write splitting works for these.
Experience the Power of the Tungsten Connector, an Intelligent MySQL Proxy
The Tungsten Connector is an intelligent MySQL proxy that provides key high-availability and read-scaling features. This includes the ability to route MySQL queries by inspecting them in-flight.
How to use Round-Robin Load Balancing with the Tungsten Connector
The power of Tungsten Clustering for MySQL / MariaDB is its built-in intelligent MySQL proxy, known as the Tungsten Connector. The Connector has built-in read-write splitting capabilities, and it is also possible to configure different algorithms which select the appropriate slave (i.e. Round-Robin or Lowest-Latency).
