Agenda

!What Is HAProxy?

!SQL Load Balancing with HAProxy

! Failure detection with MySQL

!Fault Tolerance with HAProxy

! Active/Passive setup

!Deployment Scenarios

! MySQL Cluster, Galera Cluster and MySQL Replication

!Load Balancing Alternatives

3


Why Load Balance?

!Optimising server utilisation ! Queuing and throttling

!Maximise availability ! No SPOF

!Maximise throughput ! Distribute workload across a set of servers

!Scalability ! Site traffic grows ! Add DB servers to provide more throughput

4

LB

DB DB DB …

!Reliable High Performance TCP/HTTP Load Balancer ! v1.5 stable released June 2014

! Native SSL support, IPv6, full HTTP keepalive, HTTP Compression … ! v1.4 most deployed and stable version, released Feb 2010

! client-side keep alive, TCP speedups, source base stickiness … ! Single Process Event-Driven. Can easily saturate 10Gb link with a single instance

! 108 000 session/s, http://www.haproxy.org/10g.html (2009) !Reverse Proxy

! load balancing, scaling out, failover (health checks) !High traffic sites like

! reddit, DISQUS, GitHub, Imgur, StackOverflow/Server Fault, Instagram …

!Session rate ! number of new connections per second

!Sessions ! current number of sessions/connections

!LastChk ! health check

!Wght ! server weight


MySQL Health Checks

11

!Built-in MySQL health check ! option mysql-check user <username> ! Sends two MySQL packages

! Authentication and Quit ! No errors unless MySQL server is down

!Complete HTTP Request ! option httpchk ! Response: HTTP/1.1 200 OK ! Check Host and/or MySQL server state

! Galera Node State

MySQL Health Checks (cont.)

!Galera Node ! Check 1: Get node state

! SYNCED or DONOR ! Check 2: If Node is a “DONOR”

! Get the SST method ! xtrabackup

! Return “200 OK” ! rsync or mysqldump

! Return “503 Service Unavailable” Galera Node State


MySQL Health Checks (cont.)

!xinetd service ! mysqlchk.sh (shell script) ! spams syslog by default

Network Tuning

#/etc/sysctl.conf net.ipv4.ip_nonlocal_bind=1 net.ipv4.tcp_tw_reuse=1 # reuse TIME-WAIT sockets net.ipv4.ip_local_port_range=1024 65023 # increase max num of ports net.ipv4.tcp_max_syn_backlog=40000 #Increase the number of outstanding syn requests net.ipv4.tcp_max_tw_buckets=400000 # Maximal number of timewait sockets net.ipv4.tcp_max_orphans=60000 net.ipv4.tcp_max_syn_backlog=40000 # TCP SYN Flood Protection net.ipv4.tcp_synack_retries=3 # TCP SYN Flood Protection net.core.somaxconn=40000 # burst connection rate net.ipv4.tcp_fin_timeout=5 # how long to keep sockets in FIN-WAIT-2


Fault Tolerance for HAProxy

15

Client

HAProxy 1

MySQL MySQL MySQL

IP: 10.10.10.20


Fault Tolerance for HAProxy (cont.)

!Active/Passive IP failover ! keepalived ! VRRP protocol provides router/IP failover

!VIP, “floating IP”: 10.10.0.10 ! net.ipv4.ip_nonlocal_bind=1

!Master - HAProxy 1 ! IP: 10.10.10.20

!Backup - HAProxy 2 ! IP: 10.10.10.30

Fault Tolerance for HAProxy (cont.)

!keepalived configuration file

17

#/etc/keepalived/keepalived.conf vrrp_script chk_haproxy { script "killall -0 haproxy" # verify the pid existence interval 2 # check every 2 seconds weight 2 # adjust priority by this weight } vrrp_instance VI_1 { interface eth0 state MASTER virtual_router_id 51 # ID for this route priority 101 # 101 on master # 100 on backup virtual_ipaddress { 10.10.0.10 # the virtual IP } track_script { chk_haproxy } }

Deployment Scenarios

20

!MySQL Cluster / NDB Engine ! Active/Active, Shared nothing architecture ! SQL, Data and MGMT Nodes ! HAProxy co-located with MGMT Nodes

! MGMT is a light weight process ! Re-use “idle” servers ! Connections originate from HAProxy server

! Additional latency ! App Server <-> HAProxy <-> SQL Node <-> Data Node

!MySQL Cluster / NDB Engine ! Active/Active, Shared nothing architecture ! SQL, Data and MGMT Nodes ! HAProxy co-located with App servers

! No extra latency ! Extra load on app servers ! Health check loads on SQL nodes from all LBs

! Alt: MySQL Connector/J’s JDBC driver ! jdbc:mysql:loadbalance://host-1,host-2,…host-n/database?

loadBalanceBlacklistTimeout=5000 ! Config changes propagate to all app servers

!MySQL Replication Master/Slave ! 1 Master for Writes ! N Slaves for Reads ! Separate front and backends configs for Master and Slaves

23

!Galera Cluster ! Synchronous Replication, Read & Write to any Node ! Cluster wide optimistic locking

! Higher probability for “deadlocks” ! Pessimistic locking on the Node ! Ex: sequence table, “hotspot” tables

! Write to one node, Read/Write split ! Application: Retry deadlock errors
