MySQL 8.0 Release Notes
MySQL 8.0 Source Code Documentation
Once replication has been started it executes without requiring much regular administration. This section describes how to check the status of replication, how to pause a replica, and how to skip a failed transaction on a replica.
Tip
To deploy multiple instances of MySQL, you can use InnoDB Cluster which enables you to easily administer a group of MySQL server instances in MySQL Shell. InnoDB Cluster wraps MySQL Group Replication in a programmatic environment that enables you easily deploy a cluster of MySQL instances to achieve high availability. In addition, InnoDB Cluster interfaces seamlessly with MySQL Router, which enables your applications to connect to the cluster without writing your own failover process. For similar use cases that do not require high availability, however, you can use InnoDB ReplicaSet. Installation instructions for MySQL Shell can be found here.
