Service Overview
MySQL(DBaaS) is an open-source relational database management system (RDBMS). Samsung Cloud Platform provides an environment that can automate MySQL installation and perform management functions for operation through a web-based Console.
MySQL (DBaaS) is designed as a high‑availability architecture that performs storage‑based data replication and minimizes failover time. To prevent data loss, when the contents of the Active server change, they are synchronously replicated to the Standby server, and up to five read‑only Replica servers for read load balancing and disaster recovery (DR) are provided. Additionally, it offers an automatic backup feature at user-specified times to prepare for issues with the DB server or data, allowing recovery of data at the desired point in time.
Provided features
MySQL (DBaaS) provides the following features.
- Auto Provisioning (Auto Provisioning): UI allows installation and configuration of Database (DB), and provides an Active‑standby redundancy configuration built on storage replication. * When the active server fails, it automatically fails over to standby.
- Operation Control Management: Provides a function to control the status of running servers. * In addition to start and stop, a restart is possible if there is a DB issue or to apply configuration changes. * When high availability (HA) is configured, a switch-over allows the user to directly perform the Active-Standby node transition.
- Backup and Recovery: Provides data backup functionality based on its own backup commands. * Backup time windows and storage locations can be set by the user, and additional fees may apply based on backup size. * It also provides a recovery function for backed-up data, and when the user performs a recovery, a separate database is created, and the recovery proceeds to the point in time selected by the user (backup save point, user-specified point). * When restoring to a user-specified point in time, the restore point can be set up to 5 minutes, 10 minutes, 30 minutes, or 1 hour before the stored backup and archive files.
- Version Management: Provides Major and Minor version upgrade functionality based on certain feature improvements and security patches.
- Replica configuration: For read load balancing and disaster recovery (DR), up to five Read Replicas can be configured in the same or different regions.
- Parameter Management: You can modify DB configuration parameters related to performance improvement and security.
- Service Status Query: Retrieves the final status of the current DB service.
- Monitoring: CPU, memory, performance monitoring information can be viewed through Cloud Monitoring and Servicewatch.
- DB User Management: View and manage the DB account (user) information registered in the DB.
- DB Access Control Management: Based on DB accounts registered in the DB, you can register and revoke allowed IP addresses for access.
- Archive Management: You can set the retention period (1~35 days) for Archive files on the DB server and configure the Archive mode (On/Off).
- Export DB Log: You can export stored logs to the user’s Object Storage through Audit settings.
- Migration: Synchronizes data in real time with the operational database and supports migration using replication without service interruption.
- OS Kernel Upgrade: You can upgrade the OS Kernel to apply some feature improvements and security patches.
