Abstract

XA transaction replication and it performance improvement on the parallel slave
by Andrei Elkin, MariaDB server replication team

Since introduction to MariaDB server two-phase replicated XA
transactions it’s fair to say we have further penetrated into the
fields of distributed database and synchronous replication.

This talks present some little dive into internals of XA replication
implementation, its benchmarking and how gained
results helped to improve performance.
