This blog takes a look at three stacks: networking, LAMP, and the modern MySQL database clustering stack. The networking stack is a foundational element of geo-distributed MySQL database services. LAMP is a common software solution stack used by web and other client-server applications. The modern database clustering stack enables multi-site, multi-region and globally distributed MySQL database systems for continuous operations, which Tungsten Clustering provides in a complete, fully-integrated and tested package.
As we are all being pushed to the limit to meet unprecedented demands online, the pandemic shined a light on many new frontiers and achievements in technology. This blog is about continuous MySQL database operations when you have a global user base, particularly the VMworld 2021 Global Multi-Cloud conference.
MySQL High Availability (HA) is typically what architects and technologists look for in building business-critical and mission-critical applications, and they aspire to measure MySQL uptime in 4 or preferably more “nines.” This blog explores the modern world of continuous MySQL operations - cross-region, global, hybrid-cloud, and multi-cloud - and why you might need a different approach.
A short contemplation about the current state of the programming languages. What language to choose for a new project? What are the differences between them? Is there a best language for everything?
This blog is about testing time and test suites management. “Battle-tested” is the Continuent Tungsten QA (Quality Assurance) guarantee. Continuent Tungsten is a clustering and replication solution for MySQL and MariaDB used by some of the largest MySQL estates to achieve continuous MySQL operations, locally and globally (HA, DR and Geo Distribution). Besides the stellar support team, and fully-integrated components, customers say: “Stability,” and, “Tungsten just works.”

This blog is about troubleshooting failed DDL across all Replicas in a composite active/active (CAA) Tungsten Cluster. The issue was resolved by setting a more permissive SQL_MODE, then locating and cleaning the bad data with proper NULLs before re-issuing the ALTER TABLE.
Instead of contributing back to the original project, and in that way benefitting the project as a whole, Percona takes over smaller open-source projects (such as Galera) and larger open source projects (MySQL, MongoDB), then adds some small enhancements (especially when compared to the work done by the original developers), slaps its own name on it and proceeds to make some negative comments against those who have done the hardest work.
There are two key elements (which often separate us from many other open source operators, such as Percona) to our MySQL HA/DR and Continuous Operations solutions. Read this blog, adapted from the June “Word from the CEO” from the Continuent Newsletter to find out what distinguishes Continuent’s Tungsten Clustering solution in the open source MySQL database industry.
