MySQL Cluster: Scaling Continuously Available Web Services
Go2 Media     Shopatron     Mapion     Kurier     Zillow     DocQ

Rich client browser-based technologies coupled with the proliferation of rich media types and ever-smarter mobile clients are creating expectations on performance, volumes and availability of data that have never before been witnessed.

Now, more than ever, databases have to scale linearly to handle high spikes in usage, deliver 24 x 7 continuous availability and low latency. At the same time, many workloads need to maintain the data consistency delivered by transactional integrity.

MySQL Cluster is the industry's leading real-time, write-scalable transactional database, combining 99.999% availability with the low TCO of open source. With a distributed shared-nothing architecture and no single point of failure, MySQL Cluster can scale linearly to meet the unprecedented demands of next generation web and telecommunications services.

Typical use cases in web services include:

  • User profile management for service authentication and authorization
  • eCommerce (customer and order data, payment processing, product inventory tracking, etc.)
  • Web Session Management
  • Social Networks (user profiles, authentication, real-time status updates, etc.)
  • On-Line Content Delivery (i.e. user data, content catalogs, subscription processing & management)
  • Near Real-Time Data Analysis (using Geographic Replication to update MyISAM, InnoDB, etc. tables with real-time transactional updates from MySQL Cluster)
