Before proceeding installation things , go through cluster basics from the MySQL website and forums. It will be helpful to easily understand installation and configuration. First time is difficult to get things to done in one shot is not possible , no problem will learn it .
MySQL Cluster Installation will be mostly done by two ways.,

1. Using binaries
2. rpm(Rethat,CentOS..,)

 Different Linux flavors has different methods to install format , here I have explaining with CentOS7 .

1.Have prepared two different machines to install MySQL Cluster . First you have to login two different machines

Valgrind's helgrind tool identifies data races and lock deadlocks in multi-threaded programs.  Since the MySQL server is a multi-threaded program, can helgrind find any issues in the MySQL server?

A simple test that does nothing except start up the MySQL server and shut it down is run on the MySQL test suite with memcheck and with helgrind.  For this simple test on MySQL 5.7.7, the memcheck run is nice and clean but the …

MySQL ERROR 1018 (HY000): Can't read dir of './sakila/' (errno: 13 - Permission denied) caused due to moving database to a different partition and using softlink on CentOS and it's fix for SELinux.

Houston, we have a problem. Google search for “What is innodb history list length?” and you get a bunch of nonsense mixed in with correct information, and it’s hard to tell which information is right. Let’s fix this.

What is InnoDB History, Anyway?

InnoDB is an MVCC storage engine, which means you can start a transaction and continue to see a consistent snapshot even as the data changes. This is implemented by keeping old versions of rows as they are modified.

They’re kept in a linked list. The most recent version points to the previous one, which points to the previous one, and so on. Each version has a transaction ID with it so when InnoDB goes looking for a row, it compares your current transaction ID to the row version and selects the right one for you. This can be done without locking.

MVCC is …

When MariaDB 10.0 was launched as GA in 2014 it introduced a major feature: Parallel Replication. Parallel Replication is a fantastic addition to the long list of new MariaDB features, along with Global Transaction IDs. However I don’t think like many people understand this feature very well and know how to leverage its potential to the fullest extent. This blog post will explain a few of the gotchas that you could need while setting up Parallel Replication.

1. Single-thread replication can be slower in MariaDB 10.x than in MariaDB 5.5

The addition of new features in a new branch often comes at a cost. If you have a huge replication workload then you may find out that MariaDB 10.x replication is somehow slower than its counterpart in MariaDB 5.5. Thankfully, that can be counterbalanced by setting up Parallel Replication and the benefits will be much bigger than the ones you’d have …

Introduction

With Galera you can construct database clusters where each node is located in a different physical or even geographical location. In this blog post we will show some of the benefits from having such a geo-distributed cluster and the specific Galera features that enable practical replication across WAN links.

Benefits From Geo-Distribution

Geo-distribution allows database to break out from the single data center, which opens a whole new approach to redundancy and performance.

Increased Redundancy

Having database nodes in various geographic locations increases redundancy considerably, so that a local power failure or network outage can not possibly affect all nodes in the cluster. Outages that affect multiple availability zones within a single facility are not unheard of, but Galera allows you to go beyond the availability zones and have a truly multi-datacenter database cluster.

Are your databases more costly than they need to be? If you’re not sure, this webinar will show you how to find out, quickly and easily, with KPIs that indicate overprovisioning or opportunity for driving more efficiency from your databases. If there is an opportunity to run your databases at lower cost, you’ll find out how to identify which of 5 key areas offer the biggest chances for improvement, and a specific action plan to get results fast.

If you did not have a chance to join the webinar, the slide deck is embedded below. You can also register for a recording here.

Both MySQL and MariaDB have been busy, each introducing new features, sometimes creating the same feature, often with different syntax.

This is sometimes good for users, who have a wide choice. And sometimes it is bad, as once you are used to the deployment and syntax of one flavor, it is hard to switch to a different one. This problem is enhanced if you are dealing with an application, MySQL Sandbox, that needs to work well with all flavors.

The latest releases of MySQL Sandbox (3.0.51 to 3.0.55) have been necessary to solve minor and major troublesome points with MySQL 5.7.8 and MariaDB 10.1.

The current version (3.0.55) can install all the newest releases, including replication with MySQL 5.7.8 which suffers from a compatibility bug (better explored in a separate article). …

The MySQL manual says

--socket=file_name, -S file_name ... On Unix, the name of the Unix socket file to use, for connections made using a named pipe to a local server.
The default Unix socket file name is /tmp/mysql.sock.

which might surprise folks who've had to contend with the error message
"Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '[something-other-than-/tmp/mysql.sock]'".

I'll try to explain here why the name is often something quite different, how to know what the MySQL server is really listening for, what the fixes are for either users or application developers, and why it still matters.

Why the name is not always /tmp/mysql.sock
