So my opinion on these below two points was requested, let's keep it on the public mailing list:
> * Crash-Safe replication with filename and position (not depending on > GTIDs) > Something similar as what is described in the following link would > be good: > http://blog.booking.com/better_crash_safe_replication_for_mysql.html > * Have a way to avoid "SELECT binlog_gtid_pos" when a slave connect to > the master in MASTER_USE_GTID = no So my personal opinion on this is that I prefer to focus on improving the MariaDB GTID implementation. Considerable effort was invested into this, and the idea is that future development will focus on GTID mode, keeping non-GTID mode only as a backward compatibility. Significant effort was made to ensure that MariaDB GTID is usable for all existing use-cases of replication. For the first point, GTID replication is already crash-safe. For the second point, for GTID we in any case need a solution for locating GTID position quickly, otherwise GTID replication can have performance problems in case of frequent slave connects (and Jonas Oreland has promised a patch for this any day now ;-). And once this solution is in, the second point should be moot anyway. Of course, others may have a different opinion. For the second case, I suppose the easiest thing is just to remove the code that does SELECT binlog_gtid_pos() from the slave, if no-one cares about that functionality anyway... Hope this helps, - Kristian. _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~maria-developers Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~maria-developers More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
