How do you choose the right server replication solution for your business?

Select from either MySQL Master-Slave or Master-Master replication solution from UKFast:

• Master-Master - As the name suggests, this system uses two master servers both of which are always online. If one server fails there is another with the exact same data ready to take over and continue as normal. Once the failed master is live again it will automatically get back in sync. This ensures higher availability for your data and reduces the probability of data loss.



• Master-Slave - In this case one server is the master to which you can write all data. All data is replicated to the slave server, one-way support, sharing the load but if the master server fails at any time failover is a manual process.

Use replication to solve a number of different problems, including problems with performance, databases backup support and as part of a larger solution to alleviate system failures.
