User manual MYSQL CLUSTER BROCHURE

[. . . ] Its real-time design delivers consistent millisecond response latency with the ability to service tens of thousands of transactions per second. Support for in-memory and disk-based data, automatic data partitioning with load balancing, and the ability to add nodes to a running cluster with zero downtime enables almost unlimited database scalability to handle your most unpredictable workloads. and write performance !"Dynamic, online scalability !"Automatic load balancing !"Flexible data access !"Low TCO Low Total Cost of Ownership MySQL Cluster requires no additional infrastructure, such as shared storage, and runs on a range of commodity hardware and operating system (OS) platforms, making it the most open and cost-effective database solution for mission-critical applications anywhere. "MySQL Cluster Carrier Grade Edition is a product of high quality, extremely robust and meets our demands in terms of performance and high availability. We evaluated shared-disk clustered databases but the cost would have been at least 10 times more. " --Alain Chastagner, Systems Manager, Alcatel-Lucent Proven Deployments The benefits of MySQL Cluster have been realized in the most demanding data management environments in the finance, telecommunications, Web, and government sectors, for companies and organizations such as Alcatel-Lucent, Cisco, Ericsson, Juniper, Shopatron, Telenor, UTStarcom, and the United States Navy. [. . . ] As a multi-master database with a parallel architecture, MySQL Cluster ensures write requests are distributed across all data nodes#delivering the very high levels of write throughput and scalability demanded by transactional workloads. In addition, MySQL Cluster can leverage many MySQL or Application nodes running in parallel, with each node handling multiple connections, thus providing support for high-concurrency transactional applications. Register (HLR) / Home Subscriber Server (HSS) !"VoIP, IPTV, and video on demand !"Web session management 2 ORACLE DATA SHEET Dynamic, Linear Scalability "Since deploying MySQL Cluster as our e-commerce database, we have had continuous uptime with linear scalability, enabling us to exceed our most stringent SLAs. " --Sean Collier, CIO and COO, Shopatron To support growth in the number of users, data, and transactions, MySQL Cluster provides a cost-effective way to scale both processing and data storage. With support for up to 255 nodes, MySQL Cluster users can start small and make incremental investments as services scale up and requirements increase. Simply add cluster nodes online to support increases in concurrent users and transactions, or to expand data capacity. Plus, MySQL Cluster enhances flexibility by supporting disk-based data for space-intensive objects such as BLOBs. To further enhance scalability, MySQL Cluster lets developers and DBAs refine access through user-defined partitioning, thus enabling data to be efficiently accessed on a single node, without the need for communication within the cluster to perform either a transaction or a lookup. Flexible Data Access Application developers can easily integrate new and legacy applications using their preferred database-independent method. MySQL Cluster Carrier Grade Edition provides multiple data access methods that work together. In addition to SQL, data can also be directly managed via native C++, Java, OpenJPA, Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP), and HTTP interfaces, delivering higher performance and faster development cycles for a diverse range of applications and skill sets. This allows developers to select the data access method that best fits their development and application requirements. It also enables a single instance of MySQL Cluster to service a range of applications that previously would have required their own local database. Open Source Economics MySQL Cluster is an open source, high-availability database solution that allows developers to immediately download, build and then deploy their next-generation services. Consulting services, 24/7 technical support and affordable licensing for MySQLCluster are all available at a fraction of the cost of traditional solutions. Cluster Manager Feature The manager feature in MySQL Cluster simplifies the creation and management of the MySQL Cluster database by automating common management tasks. As a result, DBAs and system administrators are more productive and able to focus on strategic IT initiatives. At the same time, risks of database downtime, which previously resulted from manual configuration errors, are significantly reduced. The manager feature is a part of the commercial MySQL Cluster Carrier Grade Edition database. Services and Support MySQL provides extensive consulting, training, and technical support services to ensure the success of any mission-critical database project. Through millions of successful customer deployments, MySQL has established a proven track record of supporting its customers, lowering risks, and maximizing ROI. Support teams are ready to assist in the development, deployment, and management of your MySQL applications. 3 ORACLE DATA SHEET SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS PER MYSQL CLUSTER DATA NODE (RECOMMENDED) !"OS: Linux (Red Hat, Learn More For additional resources, including white papers, on-demand Webinars, and customer case studies, visit mysql. com/cluster.
