Often the premium database providers used by web developers (among many others) are called “big iron” for their sheer capacity and scale. These would be IBM DB2, Oracle and Microsoft SQL Server (and possibly Sybase).
Web开发人员(以及许多其他开发人员)所使用的高级数据库提供商通常因其强大的容量和规模而被称为“大铁杆”。 它们将是IBM DB2,Oracle和Microsoft SQL Server(可能还有Sybase)。
MySQL is now joining their ranks, announcing today at their users conference in Florida the first fully open source clustering solution, aptly called MySQL Cluster. The firm states this new solution will provide 99.9999% availability for those needing redundancy for critical applications such as e-commerce solutions and more.
MySQL现在加入了他们的行列,今天在佛罗里达州的用户大会上宣布了第一个完全开放源代码群集解决方案,恰当地称为MySQL Cluster。 该公司表示,该新解决方案将为那些需要为关键应用(例如电子商务解决方案等)提供冗余的用户提供99.9999%的可用性。
Unique to this cluster solution is the dual licensing. Web developers of all sizes will be able to leverage MySQL Cluster under the GPL open source license without cost, while those needing commercial support can opt for the purchased license. This opens up development environments that can now test clustering without the cost of acquiring big iron database licensing (even development licenses from some providers can run between $400 and $1000).
该群集解决方案的独特之处在于双重许可。 各种规模的Web开发人员都可以在GPL开源许可证下免费使用MySQL Cluster,而需要商业支持的开发人员可以选择购买的许可证。 这打开了开发环境,现在可以测试集群,而无需花费大量的铁数据库许可(甚至来自某些提供商的开发许可也可以在$ 400到$ 1000之间运行)。
Key to keeping the costs low are hardware requirements. MySQL leveraged the ability to run Linux on standard hardware. This should further seal the appeal to web developers of all sizes. Hence, use of typical Linux servers with decent RPM hard drives and healthy RAM will work, in contrast to requirements for large-scale servers and fiber channel disk arrays or storage area networks for some clustering solutions.
降低成本的关键是硬件要求。 MySQL利用了在标准硬件上运行Linux的能力。 这应该会进一步吸引各种规模的Web开发人员。 因此,与某些群集解决方案对大型服务器和光纤通道磁盘阵列或存储区域网络的要求相反,将典型的Linux服务器与体面的RPM硬盘驱动器和健康的RAM配合使用将是可行的。
