NodeBalancer with MySQL

Linode Staff

I currently have MySQL running on a Linode in a production environment. We desire the ability to provide High Availability (HA) with this service. Does the NodeBalancer feature support Mysql and if so, do you have documentation on this?

We wouldn't recommend this setup as our NodeBalancer service only redirects TCP traffic to different backend Linodes. If you're looking to set up a Database replication system, a NodeBalancer wouldn't assist you with this. I recommend following our guide on configuring a Master-Master MySQL Database Replication. Another option you can take a look at is Galera.

I hope this information helps
