Deploying MySQL and MongoDB in Kubernetes

About me

● Working with MySQL for 10-15 years○ Started at MySQL AB, Sun Microsystems, Oracle

(MySQL Consulting)○ Joined Percona in 2013

What is Kubernetes?

Container orchestration system/* Operating system */

* Kubernetes is an open source system for managing containerized applications across multiple hosts

4

Container orchestration

5

Container Orchestration in Barcelona

6

Why ?

Deployment, Deployment, Deployment!○ Challenge: how to deploy massively scaled application○ Or databases: how do you deploy 100 nodes clustering system

7

Let’s look under the hood

Databases in Containers: Challenges

1. Preserving state2. Setup as cluster/replication

●○○

15

Why for databases?

16

MySQL In Kubernetes

● A single instance is easy○ https://kubernetes.io/docs/tasks/run-application/run-single-instance-stateful-appli

cation/

17

A complex setup is … more complex

● High Availability● Persistent Storage● Backup and recovery● Traffic routing● Monitoring

18

Replication

20

Replication Options

● Traditional MySQL replication● Group Replication● Percona XtraDB Cluster

21

Traditional Replication challenges

● No automatic failover○ New master detection can be quite complicated

● No automatic slave setup

22

Group Replication

● Not mature enough● Still no automatic slave setup

23

What is Percona XtraDB Cluster (PXC)?

24

Why PXC? Auto provisioning...

25

PXC: Data transfer

Storage

27

Storage options

● Local storage○ Can be fast (SSD, NVMe options)○ Still limited management capabilities in Kubernetes

● Network storage○ Management and Flexibility if supported by your setup

■ Supported by major cloud providers○ On-premise setup may require Ceph or SAN

○ The dynamic provision of persistent volumes is required

Traffic routing

29

Traffic routing

● ProxySQL○ High-performance MySQL proxy○ Query Routing○ Supports Failover

30

What is ProxySQL?

31

ProxySQL read/write split

Query routing is one of the core features of ProxySQL.

Read/write split is perhaps one of the most common query routing use

32

ProxySQL read-write split

33

Monitoring

Deployment options

37

Deployment options

● Manual● Helm Charts● Operator

38

Manual

● Manual juggling multiple YAML files

● Cumbersome and error-prone● Practically not feasible for a complicated setup● Deployment logic and configuration parameters are mixed together

backup-volume.yamlmysql-configmap.yamlproxysql-pxc.yamlpxc.yamlsecret.yamlxtrabackup-job.yaml

39

Helm Charts

Helm - The package manager for Kubernetes● Separate configuration from logic

To continue “Kubernetes is an Operating System” analogy - Helm chart is like RPM/DEB packages

40

Operator

● Method of packaging, deploying and managing a Kubernetes application

● The most advanced way of the deployment● Requires software engineering efforts

● A way to think about “Operator” is it’s goal is to replace a human in typical operations

● Assumes a high degree of automation

Demo: Let’s start our PXC cluster

$ helm install --name cluster1 . -f values.yaml

Will start: ● 3 nodes of Percona XtraDB Cluster, each with PMM Client● ProxySQL instance

Configure ProxySQL to route traffic

43

$ kubectl get pods NAME READY STATUS RESTARTS AGE cluster1-node-0 2/2 Running 0 5m cluster1-node-1 2/2 Running 0 4m cluster1-node-2 2/2 Running 0 2m cluster1-proxysql-0 2/2 Running 0 5m monitoring-0 1/1 Running 0 16m

44

Let’s take a minute here

With a single command we● Started multiple MySQL nodes (and Kubernetes will handle a node

failure)● Started and configured ProxySQL● Added all nodes under PMM Server

45

What’s so big deal about it?

● One can do it with reasonably simple Ansible playbooks?

Kubernetes is Cloud-agnostic; provides an uniform API; “write once - run anywhere” approach

46

Demo / Howto - pods

$ kubectl get pods

NAME READY STATUS RESTARTS cluster1-proxysql-0 2/2 Running 0

cluster1-node-0 2/2 Running 0

cluster1-node-1 2/2 Running 0

cluster1-node-2 2/2 Running 0

47

Demo / Howto

$ kubectl get services

NAME TYPE CLUSTER-IP EXTERNAL-IP PORT(S)

cluster1-proxysql ClusterIP 10.11.251.66 <none> 3306/TCP,6032/TCP

MySQL Port(for app) Proxy Admin Port

48

ProxySQL Admin Configuration

kubectl exec cluster1-proxysql-0 -it -- mysql -uadmin -padmin -h127.0.0.1 -P6032

Let’s kill one pod…

cluster1-node-0 0/2 Terminating 0 41m

cluster1-node-1 2/2 Running 0 41m

cluster1-node-2 2/2 Running 0 40m

51

Let’s scale it up

kubectl scale --replicas=4 statefulset/cluster1-node

statefulset "cluster1-node" scaled
