[Read more]In the last couple of blogs, we covered how to run a Galera Cluster on Docker, whether on standalone Docker or on multi-host Docker Swarm with overlay network. In this blog post, we’ll look into running Galera Cluster on Kubernetes, an orchestration tool to run containers at scale. Some parts are different, such as how the application should connect to the cluster, how Kubernetes handles failover and how the load balancing works in Kubernetes.
Kubernetes vs Docker Swarm
Our ultimate target is to ensure Galera Cluster runs reliably in a container environment. We previously covered Docker Swarm, and it turned out that running Galera Cluster on it has a number of blockers, which prevent it from being production ready. Our journey now …
[Read more]In this post, we’ll use a blog poll to find out what operating system you use to run your production database servers.
As databases grow to meet more challenges and expanding application demands, they must try and get the maximum amount of performance out of available resources. How they work with an operating system can affect many variables, and help or hinder performance. The operating system you use for your database can impact consumable choices (such as hardware and memory). The operation system you use can also impact your choice of database engine as well (or vice versa).
Please let us know what operating system you use to run your database. For this poll, we’re asking which operating system you use to actually run your production database server (not the base operating system).
If you’re running …

I recently attended DevOpsDays Toronto 2017, my first proper DevOpsDaysTO event. I had the pleasure of attending and being able to immerse myself in this openly collaborative and supportive culture of IT professionals. The variety of considerations expressed for delivering software features in a rapidly, frequently and reliable release focused manner was really intriguing….but not without its own complexities.… Read More »
In this blog post, I’ll look at how ProxySQL Admin behaves in some unusual and unexpected ways from a MySQL perspective.
ProxySQL allows you to connect to its admin interface using the MySQL protocol and use familiar tools, like the MySQL command line client, to manage its configuration as a set of configuration tables. This ability may trick you into thinking that you’re working with a stripped-down MySQL server – and expect it to behave like MySQL.
It would be a mistake to think this! In fact, ProxySQL embeds the SQLite database to store its configuration. As such, it behaves much closer to SQLite!
Below, I’ll show you a few things that confused me at first. All of these are as of ProxySQL 1.3.6 (in case behavior changes in the future).
Fake support for Use command
