KubeDB - MySQL Innodb Cluster

This tutorial will show you how to use KubeDB to provision a MySQL Innodb cluster single-primary mode.

Before You Begin

Before proceeding:

  • Innodb cluster itself use mysql group replication under the hood

  • Read mysql group replication concept to learn about MySQL Group Replication.

  • You need to have a Kubernetes cluster, and the kubectl command-line tool must be configured to communicate with your cluster. If you do not already have a cluster, you can create one by using kind.

  • Now, install KubeDB cli on your workstation and KubeDB operator in your cluster following the steps here.

  • To keep things isolated, this tutorial uses a separate namespace called demo throughout this tutorial. Run the following command to prepare your cluster for this tutorial:

    $ kubectl create ns demo
    namespace/demo created
    

Deploy MySQL Innodb Cluster

To deploy a MySQL Innodb cluster, specify spec.topology field in MySQL CRD.

The following is an example MySQL object which creates a MySQL Innodb cluster with three members (one is primary member and the two others are secondary members).

apiVersion: kubedb.com/v1alpha2
kind: MySQL
metadata:
  name: innodb
  namespace: demo
spec:
  version: "8.0.31-innodb"
  replicas: 3
  topology:
    mode: InnoDBCluster
    innoDBCluster:
      router:
        replicas: 1
  storageType: Durable
  storage:
    storageClassName: "standard"
    accessModes:
      - ReadWriteOnce
    resources:
      requests:
        storage: 1Gi
  terminationPolicy: WipeOut
$ kubectl create -f https://github.com/kubedb/docs/raw/v2024.7.3-rc.0/docs/guides/mysql/clustering/innodb-cluster/yamls/innodb.yaml
mysql.kubedb.com/innodb created

Here,

  • spec.topology tells about the clustering configuration for MySQL.
  • spec.topology.mode specifies the mode for MySQL cluster. Here we have used InnoDBCluster to tell the operator that we want to deploy a MySQL Innodb Cluster.
  • spec.topology.innoDBCluster contains the InnodbCluster info.Innodb cluster comes with a router as a load balancer
  • spec.topology.Router.replica is for the number of replica fo innodb cluster router.
  • spec.storage specifies the StorageClass of PVC dynamically allocated to store data for this database. This storage spec will be passed to the StatefulSet created by KubeDB operator to run database pods. So, each members will have a pod of this storage configuration. You can specify any StorageClass available in your cluster with appropriate resource requests.

KubeDB operator watches for MySQL objects using Kubernetes API. When a MySQL object is created, KubeDB operator will create a new StatefulSet and a Service with the matching MySQL object name. KubeDB operator will also create a governing service for the StatefulSet with the name <mysql-object-name>-pods.

Connect with MySQL database

KubeDB operator has created a new Secret called innodb-auth (format: {mysql-object-name}-auth) for storing the password for mysql superuser. This secret contains a username key which contains the username for MySQL superuser and a password key which contains the password for MySQL superuser.

If you want to use an existing secret please specify that when creating the MySQL object using spec.authSecret.name. While creating this secret manually, make sure the secret contains these two keys containing data username and password and also make sure of using root as value of username. For more details see here.

Now, you can connect to this database from your terminal using the mysql user and password.

$ kubectl get secrets -n demo innodb-auth -o jsonpath='{.data.\username}' | base64 -d
root

$ kubectl get secrets -n demo innodb-auth -o jsonpath='{.data.\password}' | base64 -d
ny5jSirIzVtWDcZ7

The operator creates a cluster according to the newly created MySQL object. This group has 3 members (one primary and two secondary).

You can connect to any of these cluster members. In that case you just need to specify the host name of that member Pod (either PodIP or the fully-qualified-domain-name for that Pod using the governing service named <mysql-object-name>-pods) by --host flag.

# first list the mysql pods list
$ kubectl get pods -n demo -l app.kubernetes.io/instance=innodb
NAME         READY   STATUS    RESTARTS   AGE
innodb-0          2/2     Running   0          15m
innodb-1          2/2     Running   0          14m
innodb-2          2/2     Running   0          14m
innodb-router-0   1/1     Running   0          15m



# get the governing service
$ kubectl get service innodb-pods -n demo
NAME          TYPE        CLUSTER-IP   EXTERNAL-IP   PORT(S)    AGE
innodb-pods   ClusterIP   None         <none>        3306/TCP   16m

# list the pods with PodIP
$ kubectl get pods -n demo -l app.kubernetes.io/instance=innodb -o jsonpath='{range.items[*]}{.metadata.name} ........... {.status.podIP} ............ {.metadata.name}.innodb-pods.{.metadata.namespace}{"\\n"}{end}'
innodb-0 ........... 10.244.0.26 ............ innodb-0.innodb-pods.demo
innodb-1 ........... 10.244.0.28 ............ innodb-1.innodb-pods.demo
innodb-2 ........... 10.244.0.30 ............ innodb-2.innodb-pods.demo

Now you can connect to this database using the above info. Ignore the warning message. It is happening for using password in the command.

# connect to the 1st server
$ kubectl exec -it -n demo innodb-0 -c mysql -- mysql -u root --password='ny5jSirIzVtWDcZ7' --host=innodb-0.innodb-pods.demo -e "select 1;"

Check the Innodb Cluster status

The main advantage of innodb cluster is its comes with an admin shell from where you are able to call the mysql admin api and configure cluster and it provide some functionality wokring with the cluster. Let’s exec into one of the pod to see the cluster status.

$ kubectl exec -it -n demo innodb-0 -c mysql -- mysqlsh -u root --password='ny5jSirIzVtWDcZ7' --host=innodb-0.innodb-pods.demo

Data Availability

In a MySQL Cluster, only the primary member can write not the secondary. But you can read data from any member. In this tutorial, we will insert data from primary, and we will see whether we can get the data from any other member.

Read the comment written for the following commands. They contain the instructions and explanations of the commands.

# create a database on primary
$ kubectl exec -it -n demo innodb-0 -- mysql -u root --password='ny5jSirIzVtWDcZ7' --host=innodb-0.innodb-pods.demo -e "CREATE DATABASE playground;"
mysql: [Warning] Using a password on the command line interface can be insecure.

# create a table
$ kubectl exec -it -n demo innodb-0 -- mysql -u root --password='ny5jSirIzVtWDcZ7' --host=innodb-0.innodb-pods.demo -e "CREATE TABLE playground.equipment ( id INT NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT, type VARCHAR(50), quant INT, color VARCHAR(25), PRIMARY KEY(id));"

In the previous step we have inserted into the primary pod. In the next step we will read from secondary pods to determine whether the data has been successfully copied to the secondary pods.

# read from secondary-1
$ kubectl exec -it -n demo innodb-0 -c mysql -- mysql -u root --password='ny5jSirIzVtWDcZ7'  --host=innodb-1.innodb-pods.demo -e "SELECT * FROM playground.equipment;"

$ kubectl exec -it -n demo innodb-0 -c mysql -- mysql -u root --password='ny5jSirIzVtWDcZ7'  --host=innodb-2.innodb-pods.demo -e "SELECT * FROM playground.equipment;"

Write on Secondary Should Fail

Only, primary member preserves the write permission. No secondary can write data.

# try to write on secondary-1
$ kubectl exec -it -n demo innodb-0 -c mysql -- mysql -u root --password='ny5jSirIzVtWDcZ7'  --host=innodb-1.innodb-pods.demo -e "INSERT INTO playground.equipment (type, quant, color) VALUES ('mango', 5, 'yellow');"
mysql: [Warning] Using a password on the command line interface can be insecure.
ERROR 1290 (HY000) at line 1: The MySQL server is running with the --super-read-only option so it cannot execute this statement
command terminated with exit code 1

# try to write on secondary-2
$ kubectl exec -it -n demo innodb-0 -c mysql -- mysql -u root --password='ny5jSirIzVtWDcZ7'  --host=innodb-2.innodb-pods.demo -e "INSERT INTO playground.equipment (type, quant, color) VALUES ('mango', 5, 'yellow');"
mysql: [Warning] Using a password on the command line interface can be insecure.

Automatic Failover

To test automatic failover, we will force the primary Pod to restart. Since the primary member (Pod) becomes unavailable, the rest of the members will elect a new primary for the cluster. When the old primary comes back, it will join the cluster as a secondary member.

Read the comment written for the following commands. They contain the instructions and explanations of the commands.

# delete the primary Pod innodb-0
$ kubectl delete pod innodb-0  -n demo
pod "innodb-0" deleted

# check the new primary ID
$ kubectl exec -it -n demo innodb-0 -c mysql -- mysql -u root --password='ny5jSirIzVtWDcZ7' --host=innodb-0.innodb-pods.demo -e "show status like '%primary%'"

Now Let’s read the data from secondary pods to see if the data is consistent.

# read data from secondary-1 innodb-0.innodb-pods.demo
$ kubectl exec -it -n demo innodb-0 -c mysql -- mysql -u root --password='ny5jSirIzVtWDcZ7' --host=innodb-0.innodb-pods.demo -e "SELECT * FROM playground.equipment;"
