In the previous test we looked at what happened when we scaleup an Azure Database for MySQL server to sustain an heavy workload. We saw that the service interruption was minimal. Azure Database for MySQL being a fully managed DBaaS being able to scale up the service only when required by the workload is a ...continue reading "Scaling up or scaling down Azure Database for MySQL for cost optimization ..read more

In that test I would like to measure the impact of a failover of an Azure Database for MySQL. Unfortunately there is no mechanism to force the crash of the Azure Database for MySQL instance. So how can I test how long it takes to failover and what is the impact on a server activity. ...continue reading "Azure Database for MySQL failover impact on availability ..read more

My aim here is to experiment a new approach with Azure database for MySQL/MariaDB and ProxySQL. When a connection is initiated with Azure database for MySQL/MariaDB it goes through a shared gateway. This gateway knows where the target database server is. This level of indirection is very useful to offer High Availability in a way ...continue reading "ProxySQL connection redirection experiment with Azure database for MySQL/MariaDB. 1/2 ..read more
