Why teams use it

MySQL runs on dedicated compute with managed backups, failover, and restore.

Managed MySQL removes the operational burden of installation, backup handling, and patching. You connect with any MySQL-compatible driver, run your schema migrations, and query as normal.

Under the hood

Dedicated compute, HA proxy layer, NVMe-backed storage.

Each MySQL instance runs on dedicated vCPU and memory, no shared resources with adjacent database instances. Group replication ensures automatic primary election and data consistency across replicas.

An integrated HAProxy layer routes write traffic (port 3306) to the current primary and distributes read traffic (port 3307) across replicas with round-robin load balancing. Health checks run every 5 seconds with automatic failover, no application-side connection management needed.

Data directories sit on NVMe SSD-backed block storage with multi-drive redundancy. Storage scales independently from compute.

Capabilities

What you get on Day One

MySQL 8.0+ on dedicated EPYC hardware with automated backups, monitoring, and SSL.

MySQL 8.0+

InnoDB storage engine with modern defaults. Compatible with major ORMs, connection poolers, migration tools, and MySQL-compatible clients.

Automated backups

Daily backups plus continuous binary log archiving. Restore to any second within the 30-day retention window.

Monitoring & insights

Slow query logs, performance metrics, and alerts. Identify bottlenecks before they affect production response times.

SSL / TLS

All connections encrypted with TLS. Encryption at rest on all data and backup volumes. Compatible with standard MySQL TLS client flags.

Platform specifications

Engine: MySQL 8.4, 8.0. InnoDB storage engine with group replication.
Compute: Dedicated vCPU and memory per instance. No shared resources with adjacent databases. Scales via SKU plans.
Storage: NVMe SSD-backed block storage. Data volume scales independently from compute. Online volume expansion without downtime.
High availability: MySQL Group Replication with 1–10 replicas. Automatic primary election and failover. Pod anti-affinity spreads instances across nodes. Pod Disruption Budget ensures minimum availability during maintenance.
Proxy layer: HAProxy included on all instances (3 replicas for HA). Write port 3306 routes to primary. Read port 3307 load-balances across replicas. Connection timeout: 28,800s. Prometheus metrics on port 8404.
Backups: Full binary backups with compression. Supports local, S3-compatible, GCS, and Azure Blob storage destinations. On-demand and scheduled backups.
Monitoring: Built-in performance monitoring enabled by default. Query analytics, replication health, and HAProxy metrics included.
Security: TLS support available with certificate management. Encrypted backup credentials. Network policies for namespace-level isolation.
Networking: Public access via dedicated LoadBalancer IPs (separate read-write and read-only endpoints). Private access via internal DNS. Configurable source IP restriction.
