Writing MySQL proxy in GO for learning purposes: Part 2 — decoding connection phase server response

Writing MySQL Proxy in GO for self-learning: Part 2 — decoding handshake packet

After we built a generic TCP proxy, we can continue with our journey. Today’s goal will be to understand the MySQL Protocol, receive, decode, encode and send to the client the first packet sent by the MySQL Server.

MySQL connections threads

Each client connection to MySQL Server handled by a thread. MySQL is portable, so the underhood threads implementation is system dependent (Windows, macOS, and Linux have their own threads implementation).

What important to us, it’s to understand that a single client connection …

To celebrate the publishing of my new book MySQL 8 Query Performance Tuning, the Apress team invited me (thanks Jonathan and Liz) to write a post for the Apress blog. I decided to write about my top six best practices:

  • Make small, incremental changes
  • Understand the change

Yes, my first best practice is to be wary of best practices. Read why I added that and the other best practices at …

Percona XtraBackup 8.x and MySQL 8.0.20

Update: Percona XtraBackup 8.0.12 now supports backup and restore processing for versions of MySQL 8.x; previous versions of Percona XtraBackup will not work with MySQL 8.0.20 and higher. More information

On Monday, April 27, 2020, Oracle released the highly anticipated 8.0.20 version of the MySQL database server. This release contains changes to the InnoDB redo log format which breaks compatibility with all currently released versions of the Percona XtraBackup 8.x series.

At this time, there are no known workarounds that will allow any version of Percona XtraBackup 8.x to function properly with MySQL 8.0.20.

We have identified the specific cause of the issue and diligently working towards a new release that will safely solve this issue as soon as possible.

Thank you for your …

Group Replication and Percona XtraDB Cluster: Overview of Common Operations

In this blog post I would like to give an overview of the most common failover scenarios and operations when using MySQL Group Replication 8.0.19 (aka GR) and Percona XtraDB Cluster 8 (PXC) (which is based on Galera), and explain how each technology handles each situation. I have created a three-node cluster with Group Replication using a single Primary and a three-node PXC, both with default settings. I am also going to use ProxySQL to interface with both clusters.

In both clusters, the name of the nodes are mysql1, mysql2,  and mysql3. In Group Replication the Primary node is where the writes go if we are using single primary configuration. In PXC, I will use the same term as well and will call the node Primary where I am sending the writes. Just to note, in PXC there is no concept of primary node, …
