On Monday afternoon, Neal Armitage and I will be speaking at Percona Live in London. It will be a three hours tutorial about Tungsten replicator.
The contents of this tutorial are mostly new. We have released recently a new and easier way of installing different topologies, in the shape of cookbook scripts, which are distributed with the replicator tarball.
Using this cookbook, any user can simply install multiple topologies, from the simple master/slave to all-masters, fan-in, and star.
There are recipes for showing the replication cluster, switching roles between master and a chosen slave, taking over MySQL replication, installing direct slaves with parallel replication, testing each topology, and uninstalling all.
All the above will be demonstrated during the tutorial, with the addition of conflict prevention and more management issues.
The Tungsten cookbook in the wiki has been updated to reflect the changes.
