My talks about MySQL, Galera and LXC (and friends) [UPDATE]

Im giving some talks this year:

MySQL Hochverfügbar mit Galera

Location: FrOSCon

About: Learn about Galera and deploy it using LXC and Ansible

LBaaS-Loadbalancer as a Service

Place: GUUG Frühjahrsgespräche

Topic: It is a workshop ( together with Jan Walzer and Jörg Jungermann). We are going to show how to use LXC to provide slim loadbalancers.

Medley der Containertechniken

Place: GUUG Frühjahrsgespräche

Topic: Learn about all the basic techniques vanilla based Container technology uses/shares (Namespaces, Cgroups und Chroot). Have a look at some of them (LXC, Libvrit, systemd-nspawn and Docker)

MySQL Replikation: Von den Anfängen in die Zukunft

Place: DOAG 2014

Topic: Learn about the past and the future of MySQL (and MariaDB) replication.

2xHipster (Docker and Galera) doesn't mean its good.

Ahoi,

There had been already a couple of blogposts about Docker and Galera in the MySQL community. I've got to confess I love both. But on the other hand I don't think this is a good combination at all. Having a look at the blogpost doing galera with docker Im still not confessed. Im going to tell some points why I think so.

I assume Galera is already well know in the MySQL community :)

Docker is not just another technique to virtualize

Docker is more than just being another way to virtualize. And this may be one of the biggest points I miss with the other blogposts.

What is the purpose of Docker?

With Docker you build applicationcontainers. So you have a container just running one application. The overhead of containers compared to hypervisor technologies like KVM, VMWare etc. is much slower. But instead running a full OS in a container, you just run on …

Hi,
I would like to give you an overview regarding all my talks till june.

  • MySQL@Ceph (Ceph Day Frankfurt ./. 27.02.2014)
    Yes you missed that already :)
  • MySQL: PerformanceSchema (DOAG SIG - MySQL ./. 27.03.2014)

  • Docker: LXC Applikationskontainer für jedermann (SLAC ./. 13.05.2014)

There is also a training about LXC and “newer” Linuxfeatures (Systemd, Upstart, Namespaces..) im giving at the Linuxhotal early may.

Viel Spaß :)

How to Deploy Galera Cluster for MySQL using Docker Containers

February 18, 2014 By Severalnines

Virtual Machines are great, and very useful when trying out new software. However, they might be an unnecessarily heavyweight solution when testing clusters, especially if these consist of multiple nodes running exactly the same software. Each VM runs a full-blown OS image. On the other hand, Linux Containers (LXC) are an efficient alternative to OS-level virtualization and can run multiple isolated systems on a single host. Docker is a wrapper around LXC, it automates the deployment of applications inside containers. 

A notable advantage if you run with Docker + LXC is you can run many containers on a single host. They all share the same OS as the host, and when possible, the same binaries. Deployment can be extremely fast. Using Docker could be a good method if you want to spin multiple Galera nodes within a single host. 

In this post, we will create MySQL Galera Cluster …

Using MySQL with Docker

Regarding virtualization I am a LXC guy. Nevertheless Docker has won a lot of attention and I would like to show how to use MySQL with Docker.

What is Docker?

In fact Docker is a wrapper around LXC. It is fun to use. Docker has the philosophy to virtualize single applications using LXC. So in our example we are going to start a mysqld in a chroot environment encapsulated in his own Namespaces. (You can even set Cgroups resources.) One of the main points regarding Docker is the usage of a union filesystem (aufs). So when you start a Docker Container it gets his aufs mount and only changed data is written down.

Aufs is great for a lot of applications and sufficient for Database testing. I just want to share a simple - more educational, than effective - Dockerfile. Dockerfiles are the buildscripts for the Docker images.

Lets have a look at the Dockerfile:

Talks at DOAG 2013

Ahoi,Attending DOAG 2013 next week, Im going to give two talks (Applikationsvirtualisierung mit LXC and MySQL Replikation).Also Im invited to attend a MySQL Expert Panel, where you can let a bunch of MySQL Experts discuss your questions ;)DOAG is afaik the biggest Oracle Event (and even not driven by Oracle) in Europe.A good place to have nice discussions and learn a lot of new stuff :)
Hope to see youErkan Yanar
