MySQL Group Replication brings together group communication techniques and database replication to build a resilient, highly available database service. Fault-tolerance comes, however, at the cost of complexity and extra work that the system itself has to do.

In this session, we will look at how Group Replication performs and how it can meet the most demanding performance requirements. We will also bring forth a few tips and guidelines to configure and manage it in the most optimal way. These may help you to set it up efficiently and meet your infrastructure requirements. At the end of the session you will have learned how to make the most out of the Group Replication plug-in in terms of HA while achieving good performance overall.
