[Gluster-devel] SQL databases storage

[Tejas N. Bhise]

Hi Samuel,

Gluster is known to work with databases because we provide posix compliance. However we only recommend use of Gluster for unstructured file data.

Tejas

Subject: [Gluster-devel] SQL databases storage

Hi all,

I am trying to store MySQL and PostgreSQL files on the Gluster. I
started with MySQL and was suprised because it seems to work fine.

Firstly, is someone trying to do the same thing ? I am interested in
feedbacks or any kind of experience reviews.
Secondly, as I thought, I encoutered several database corrumptions but
MySQL repair tool works well and can fix these problems (however I have
to do that manually so it is useless).

@Gluster: are you intereted in database storage over GlusterFS
feedbacks? because we are trying to deploy MySQL, PostgreSQL and LDAP
directly on a GlusterFS space. Is it interesting to track the errors and
try to fix or this technology is not provided for these types of using?

Thanks for your answers.

Kind regards.
Sam
