MySQL database software has a built-in replication component that is an application-based replication facility. MySQL replication keeps one or more standby databases in sync with the active master. Geographic Edition supports the use of MySQL replication between two databases. Only asynchronous replication is available.
You add a plug-in for MySQL replication to a protection group. This plug-in monitors the status of the replication and controls the replication direction. For more information about MySQL software, see the product documentation.
