What is MariaDB Enterprise Cluster?
MariaDB Enterprise Cluster is an open-source active-active, multi-primary synchronous replication solution designed for MariaDB Enterprise Server. It delivers high availability, scalability, and automated failover for mission-critical transactional workloads. The cluster ensures parallel replication and data consistency across all nodes, automatically managing the identification and removal of failed nodes while recovering and rejoining new nodes without manual intervention.
This solution eliminates risks such as lost transactions, significant replica lag, or client latency. It supports geographically distributed data placement across wide area networks (WAN) and can be combined with asynchronous replication to enhance performance and reduce response times for end-user web services.
Features
- Multi-master clustering: All nodes accept write and read operations with data synchronization
- Synchronous replication: Ensures data consistency across all nodes with parallel replication
- Automated failover: Automatically removes failed nodes and recovers them without application intervention
- High availability: Provides zero downtime and uninterrupted applications for mission-critical workloads
- Geographically distributed data: Supports placement across WANs with asynchronous replication options
Use Cases
- Mission-critical transactional workloads requiring high availability
- Applications needing multi-master database clustering with synchronous replication
- Geographically distributed web services requiring reduced response times
- Systems requiring automated failover and node recovery without manual intervention
- Enterprise applications needing scalable and fault-tolerant database solutions
