Mysql master-slave replication and read-write separation

Posted by Dave Liebman on Sat, 19 Feb 2022 09:22:54 +0100

summary

In the actual production environment, the reading and writing of the database are in the same database server, which can not meet the actual needs. Therefore, master-slave replication is used to synchronize data, and then read-write separation is used to improve the concurrent load capacity of the database. It is a bit similar to rsync, but the difference is that rsync backs up disk files, while mysql master-slave replication backs up data and statements in the database.

MySQL master-slave replication principle

The master-slave replication of MySQL and the read-write separation of MySQL are closely related. First, deploy the master-slave replication. Only after the master-slave replication is completed, can the data read-write separation be carried out on this basis.

Replication principles supported by MySQL

  • STATEMENT based replication: SQL statements executed on the master server and statements executed on the slave server. MySQL adopts STATEMENT based replication by default, which is more efficient.
  • ROW based replication (ROW): copy the changed content, instead of executing another article of fame and wealth from the server.
  • MIXED replication: by default, it adopts the replication of opportunity and statement. Once it is found that the replication based on statement cannot be accurately replicated, it will be applied to the replication based on row.

MySQL only copies the working process from

Main Mysql server: Master
From Mysql server: Slave


Master server saves records to binary log

Before each transaction updates the data, the Master server records these changes in the Binary log. After writing the Binary log, the Master server notifies the storage engine to commit the transaction.

The Slave server copies the logs of the Master server

  • The Slave server copies the binary log of the Master server to the Relay log.
  • First, the Slave server starts a working thread (I/O). The I/O thread opens a common connection on the Master server, and then starts the Binlog dump process.
  • Binlog dump process reads events from the binary log of the Master server. If the Slave server has kept up with the Master server, it will sleep and wait for the Master server to generate new events, and the I/O thread will write these events to the relay log.

The Slave server replays the copied logs

  • SQL slave thread is the last step of this process. The SQL thread reads events from the relay log, replays the events, and updates the data of the Slave server to make it consistent with the data in the Master server. As long as the thread is consistent with the I/O thread, the relay log will usually be located in the OS cache, so the overhead of the relay log is very small.

Note: there is a very important limitation in the replication process, that is, the replication is serialized on the Slave server, that is, the parallel update operation on the Master server cannot be operated in parallel on the Slave server.

MySQL read / write separation

1. The concept of separation of reading and writing

The basic principle of read-write separation is to let the main database handle transactional addition, modification and deletion operations (INSERT, UPDATE and DELETE), while the SELECT query operation is handled from the database. Database replication is used to synchronize the changes caused by transactional operations to the slave database in the cluster.

2. Significance of separation of reading and writing

Because the "write" (writing 10000 pieces of data may take 3 minutes) operation of the database is time-consuming.
But the "read" of the database (it may take only 5 seconds to read 10000 pieces of data).
Therefore, the separation of reading and writing solves the problem that the writing of the database affects the efficiency of query

3. When should I separate reading and writing

The database does not have to be read-write separated. If the program uses more databases, it will be considered when there are less updates and more queries. The use of database master-slave synchronization and read-write separation can share the pressure of the database and improve the performance.

4. MySQL read-write separation principle

Read write separation is to write only on the master server and read only on the slave server.
The basic principle is to let the master database handle transactional queries and the slave database handle select queries.
Database replication is used to synchronize the changes caused by transactional queries on the master database to the slave database in the cluster.

5. Common MySQL read / write separation

1) Internal implementation based on program code
In the code, routing is classified according to select and insert. This kind of method is also the most widely used in production environment at present.
Advantages and disadvantages:
The advantage is better performance, because it is implemented in program code, and there is no need to add additional equipment for hardware expenditure;

The disadvantage is that it needs developers to implement it, and the operation and maintenance personnel have no way to start.
Not all applications are suitable for realizing read-write separation in program code. For example, some large and complex Java applications, if reading-write separation is realized in program code, the code will be greatly changed.
2) Implementation based on intermediate agent layer
The proxy is generally located between the client and the server. After receiving the request from the client, the proxy server forwards it to the back-end database through judgment. There are the following representative programs:
MySQL proxy: MySQL proxy is an open source project of MySQL. SQL judgment is made through its own lua script.

Atlas: it is a data middle tier project based on MySQL protocol developed and maintained by the infrastructure team of Qihoo 360's Web Platform Department. Based on MySQL proxy version 0.8.2, it optimizes it and adds some new features. The MySQL service run by atlas in 360 carries billions of read and write requests every day. Support things and stored procedures.
Amoeba: developed by Chen Siru. The author once worked for Alibaba. The program is developed by the Java language and Alibaba uses it in the production environment. However, it does not support transactions and stored procedures.

Since a large number of lua scripts need to be written to use MySQL Proxy, these Lua scripts are not ready-made, but need to be written by themselves, which is very difficult for people who are not familiar with MySQL Proxy built-in variables and MySQL Protocol.

Amoeba is a very easy-to-use and highly portable software, so it is widely used in the agent layer of database in the production environment.

Experimental deployment of MySQL master-slave replication and read-write separation


Experimental ideas

Step 1: the client accesses the proxy server amoeba

Step 2: proxy server read / write judgment
Write operation: write to the primary server

Step 3: the master server overwrites the additions and deletions into its own binary log

Step 4: the slave server synchronizes the binary log of the master server to its own relay log

Step 5: replay the relay log from the server to the database
Read operation: direct access from the server

Final result: reduce the load and play the role of load balancing
