DESCRIPTION
Global data access can greatly expand the reach of your business. Continuent Tungsten multi-site multi-master (MSMM) solutions enable applications to accept write traffic in multiple locations across on-premises and cloud providers. This includes the following important real-world use cases: • Improve performance for globally distributed users registering hardware devices by permitting updates on the geographically closest site. • Ensure availability of credit card processing by spreading transaction processing across two or more sites. Users can still process credit card transactions if a single site is unavailable to them for any reason, including end-user Internet routing problems. • Enable business continuity by using multi-master updates on different hosting providers for service scalability, personalization and software upgrades of GPS devices. Individual Continuent Tungsten clusters already provide excellent single-site database availability and performance. In this webinar we review the benefits of combining multiple Continuent Tungsten clusters into a global multi-site multi-master topology for: • Optimizing your installation for MSMM • Optimizing your application for MSMM • Monitoring and administration • Failover and recovery of individual servers or entire locations.

The Importance of Geographic Distribution for
Business Data
©Continuent 2014
Use case: Registering and updating hardware devices
• Users may be located in any region
• DNS routes users to an available site with lowest round-trip latency
• Each site offers full-service processing to users
• BENEFIT: Transactions always process at the fastest location for user
6
©Continuent 2014
Use case: Credit card transaction processing
• Customer connectivity to a particular Internet site is never guaranteed
• Credit card processing apps use a list of potential sites
• Credit card app connects to the first responsive site and issues transaction
• BENEFIT: No credit card transaction is ever refused
7
©Continuent 2014
Use case: GPS device personalization and upgrade service
• Local sites may be subject to prolonged failures that would otherwise
• Business processing continues at other sites
• Transactions reconcile automatically when down site(s) are restored
• BENEFIT: Business processing continues without complex site failover or data loss

Design for MSMM
24
©Continuent 2014
Application and Schema Design
• Use auto_increment or UUID for primary keys
• Avoid unique keys that may conflict from different locations
• Shard users into different schemas if possible
• Heavy INSERT workloads operate best
• Avoid UPDATE/DELETE statements of the same data from different locations
25
©Continuent 2014
Server Configuration
• Use auto_increment_increment and auto_increment_offset
• Handle DNS management with Global Traffic Managers
• 24/7 monitoring and response is critical if you are operating in all sites
26

Wrap-Up
©Continuent 2014
Standard clustering designs provably fail when operating over distance
• Synchronous replication adds severe performance drag (Daniel Abadi, Yale Univ.)
• Global locks create exploding deadlock problems (Jim Gray, Microsoft)
• Strong consistency between DBMS requires some/all regions to stop when network fails (CAP proof by Nancy Lynch, MIT)
