MariaDB Galera Cluster is a virtually synchronous multi-primary cluster for MariaDB. It is available on Linux only, and only supports the InnoDB storage engine (although there is experimental support for MyISAM and, from MariaDB 10.6, Aria. See the wsrep_replicate_myisam system variable, or, from MariaDB 10.6, the wsrep_mode system variable).

Features

  • Virtually synchronous replication
  • アクティブ-アクティブ・マルチプライマリ・トポロジ
  • どのクラスタ・ノードに対しても読み書き可能
  • 自動メンバーシップ制御、失敗ノードはクラスタから脱落
  • 自動ノード結合
  • ROWレベルでの真の並列レプリケーション
  • クライアントからの直接接続、MariaDBネイティブな外観と操作

Benefits

The above features yield several benefits for a DBMS clustering solution, including:

  • No replica lag
  • No lost transactions
  • Read scalability
  • Smaller client latencies
