This is the MySQL NDB Cluster Internals Manual, which contains
information about the NDBCLUSTER
storage engine that is not strictly necessary for running the NDB
Cluster product, but can prove useful for development and debugging
purposes. Topics covered in this Guide include, among others,
communication protocols
employed between nodes,
file systems used by
management nodes and data nodes,
error messages, and
debugging (DUMP
)
commands in the management client.
NDB Cluster also provides support for the Memcache API; for more information, see ndbmemcache—Memcache API for NDB Cluster (NO LONGER SUPPORTED).
NDB Cluster also provides support for applications written using
Node.js
. See MySQL NoSQL Connector for JavaScript, for
more information.
The information presented in this guide is current for recent releases of NDB Cluster up to and including NDB Cluster 8.0.32. Due to significant functional and other changes in NDB Cluster and its underlying APIs, you should not expect this information to apply to previous releases of the NDB Cluster software prior to NDB Cluster 7.3. Users of older NDB Cluster releases should upgrade to the latest available GA release of NDB Cluster 8.0. For more information, see What is New in MySQL NDB Cluster.
This guide also contains information relating to NDB Cluster 7.6, now under development, and available as a Developer Preview for testing and evaluation purposes.
