[debian-mysql] mysql-cluster

[Viktor Křivák]

Hi,
yes mysql-cluster is official Oracle stuff (
https://www.mysql.com/products/cluster/ ). It use ndbcluster engine and
master-master replication. They actually have 2 version: free community and
supported with some close source. It's official fork of mysql with some
additional stuffs and they are also binary incompatible (binlog). Main
advantage is 99.999% availability ( Oracle words not mine ).  They also
have a little different versioning. Current version is 7.4.11 and it
contain mysql-server 5.6.29.

At this moment I've got package for old version with some start scripts
(systemv) but it is work probably only in our environment. I'm working on
last stable version with lots of improvements. Final goal is that you can
install whole cluster without any deeper knowledge of configuration or
start procedure . So I have to write some scripts that Oracle probably have
in supported version. Also I "steal" some scripts from standard mysql,
because mysqld params are almost same.

I ask only because sometimes maintainers team work on they own solution in
private and then refuse others (this happen to me before on another
project). I think this can take a lots of time and a lots of questions, but
when I've got something what I can show you I send it as soon as possible.

Regards,
Viktor
