Replication Tutorial

Although MySQL Replication is easy to set up and easy to configure, it is nevertheless a very versatile tool that can be used to solve many problems in modern applications.

In this session, the developers behind MySQL Replication will go through the architecture and concepts behind replication, introduce a number of basic replication setups, and in a step-by-step manner describe how to configure replication for the various setups.

After getting an understanding for how to set up basic replication scenarios, we will go through a selection of more advanced uses, such as: setting up row-based replication, writing clients for controlling and monitoring replication, and also an introduction to the basic tools for analyzing replication problems.

In order to allow session participants to test replication and experiment with setting it up, tools to easily configure and set up replication on your local machine will be available before the session. You can install the tools before the session, but it is not necessary for following the tutorial.
