How does it work? <Insert Picture Here>

At a high level On the master makes a change to the data writes it to the binary log On the slave copies the masters binary logs to the relay logs runs the relay logs applying the changes

Nitty Gritty of Master Side Master makes a change and writes the binlog entry Details: it writes the the changes to the binary log writes the transactions serially After writing to the binary log, the master tells the storage engine to commit the transaction.

Enter the Slave IO thread Slave creates an I/O thread which connects to the master Slave connects to the master just like any other client then starts a binlog dump process Master then creates a thread to send the binary log contents to a slave when the slave connects Slave IO thread writes the binary log events to the slaves relay log Once slave catches up with master, IO thread goes to sleep and waits for the master to signal it has new events

Slave SQL Thread Separates the actual execution of the binary log events from the retrieval of it on the master Read and replays the events from the relay log updates the slaves data to match the masters Has all privileges so it can run any query that is sent potential bottleneck

Basic Info 3 binary log formats: Statement Based Replication (SBR) Row Based Replication (RBR) Mixed The format of the binary log has no relevance to how the slave handles it. The SQL thread on the slave can and will handle any binary log format given to it controlled by setting the binlog_format each format has its pros and cons

Statement Based Replication (SBR) Been used by all previous versions of replication Pros: Proven Less data written to log files. Can be used for audit purposes Cons: Some statements are unsafe Any nondeterministic behavior is difficult to replicate More locking may be needed then Row Based Complex statements will have to be evaluated and executed Deterministic UDFs must be applied on the slaves InnoDB: INSERT statement using AUTO_INCREMENT blocks other nonconflicting INSERT statements.

Row Based Replication (RBR) Replicates only the changed rows Pros: All changes can be replicated Safest form Same as most other RDBMS Fewer locks required Cons: Generally more data to be logged Some problems with older versions but fixed now large BLOBs can take longer to replicate

Mixed Replication Uses both SBR and RBR Statement-based logging is used by default Automatically switches to row-based logging in particular cases http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.1/en/binary-log-mixed.html Can provide best of both worlds - but requires testing

Use Cases <Insert Picture Here>

ScaleOut Very common use case Scale out load to multiple servers Reads can be sent to slaves Writes are done on the Master Good for high read workloads Some improvement to writes if Master only writes

Data Redundancy Another common usage backups Failover Use as a testing system test queries application interaction Use different storage engine abilities

Analytics Reporting different queries long running locking caches DBA can query to learn about their data distribution trends

Long Distance Data Distribution Geographically separate locations disaster recovery Office wants to work on a local copy

Setting it up <Insert Picture Here>

Setting up Replication On the Master config file, need to add log-bin=mysql_bin server_id=1 On the Slave config file, need to add server_id=2 Create the Replication User requires REPLICATION SLAVE privilege mysql> CREATE USER 'repl'@'%.mydomain.com' IDENTIFIED BY 'slavepass'; mysql> GRANT REPLICATION SLAVE ON *.* TO 'repl'@'%.mydomain.com';

Setting up Replication (con’t) Get from Master Obtain master server binary log coordinates mysql> FLUSH TABLES WITH READ LOCK; mysql> SHOW MASTER STATUS; Copy the master (if not a new master) mysqldump or binary copy Finally ready! Actual steps for a new setup: Configure Master; (re)start Master Set up Replication User on Master Get Master status Release read locks on Master Configure Slave; (re)start Slave Execute CHANGE MASTER TO statement

mysql> CHANGE MASTER TO -> MASTER_HOST=' master_host_name ', -> MASTER_USER=' replication_user_name ', -> MASTER_PASSWORD=' replication_password ', -> [ MASTER_PORT = port_num,] -> MASTER_LOG_FILE=' recorded_log_file_name ', -> MASTER_LOG_POS= recorded_log_position, -> [MASTER_SSL = {0|1},] -> [MASTER_SSL_CA = ' ca_file_name ',] -> [MASTER_SSL_CAPATH = ' ca_directory_name ',] -> [MASTER_SSL_CERT = ' cert_file_name ',] -> [MASTER_SSL_KEY = ' key_file_name ',] -> [MASTER_SSL_CIPHER = ' cipher_list ',] -> [MASTER_SSL_VERIFY_SERVER_CERT = {0|1}] ;

Filtering rules <Insert Picture Here>

Filtering Rule Basics 2 levels of filtering On the Master Not recommended On the slave preferred Can be confusing

Filtering on the Master How it works: binlog-do-db binlog-ignore-db Not recommended - ever! Reasons: audit point in time recovery crash recovery

Filtering on the Slave How it works: replicate-do-db replicate-ignore-db replicate-do-table replicate-ignore-table replicate-wild-do-table replicate-wild-ignore-table Avoid mixing “do” and “ignore” command Avoid mixing wildcard and nonwildcard options First checks DB level filtering and only if no matches moves on to the table level matching

Table Filters 1 Start (Following DB options) Any replicate-*-table options? execute UPDATE and Exit Which logging format? Statement Row For each statement that performs an update.. For each update of a table row... No Yes

Table Filters 2 (do/ignore) Any replicate-do-table options? execute UPDATE and Exit Any replicate-ignore-table options? Does the table match any of them? Yes No Yes No ignore UPDATE and Exit Does the table match any of them? Yes Yes No No

Table Filters 3 (wild do/wild ignore) Any replicate-wild-do-table options? execute UPDATE and Exit Any replicate-wild-ignore-table options? Does the table match any of them? Yes No Yes No ignore UPDATE and Exit Does the table match any of them? Yes Yes No No

Table Filters 4 Is there another table to be tested? Any replicate-do-table or replicate-wild-do-table options? Yes No No ignore UPDATE and Exit Yes execute UPDATE and Exit
