ApsaraDB RDS:Configure two-way data synchronization between MySQL instances

Last Updated:Aug 18, 2023

Data Transmission Service (DTS) supports two-way synchronization between MySQL instances.

Supported source and destination databases

The following table describes the types of source and destination MySQL databases that are supported by DTS. In this example, the source and destination ApsaraDB RDS for MySQL instances are used. You can also follow the procedure to configure data synchronization tasks for other types of MySQL databases.

Source database

Destination database

  • ApsaraDB RDS for MySQL instance
  • Self-managed database that is hosted on Elastic Compute Service (ECS)
  • Self-managed database that is connected over Express Connect, VPN Gateway, or Smart Access Gateway
  • Self-managed database that is connected over Database Gateway
  • Self-managed database that is connected over Cloud Enterprise Network (CEN)
  • ApsaraDB RDS for MySQL instance
  • Self-managed database that is hosted on Elastic Compute Service (ECS)
  • Self-managed database that is connected over Express Connect, VPN Gateway, or Smart Access Gateway
  • Self-managed database that is connected over Database Gateway
  • Self-managed database that is connected over Cloud Enterprise Network (CEN)

Prerequisites

  • The source and destination ApsaraDB RDS for MySQL instances are created. For more information, see Create an ApsaraDB RDS for MySQL instance.
  • The source and destination ApsaraDB RDS for MySQL instances have the same storage capacity.

Usage notes

Note
  • During schema synchronization, DTS synchronizes foreign keys from the source database to the destination database.
  • During full synchronization and incremental synchronization, DTS temporarily disables checking of foreign key constraints and foreign key cascade operations at the session level. If you perform the cascade update and delete operations on the source database during data synchronization, data inconsistency may occur.
CategoryDescription
Limits on the source and destination databases
  • The tables to be synchronized must have PRIMARY KEY or UNIQUE constraints, and all fields must be unique. Otherwise, the destination database may contain duplicate data records.
  • If you select tables as the objects to be synchronized and you need to edit the tables, such as renaming tables or columns, you can synchronize up to 1,000 tables in a single data synchronization task. If you run a task to synchronize more than 1,000 tables, a request error occurs. In this case, we recommend that you split the tables and configure multiple tasks to synchronize the tables, or configure a task to synchronize the entire database.
  • The following requirements for binary logs must be met:
    • The binary logging feature is enabled by default. The binlog_row_image parameter must be set to full. Otherwise, error messages are returned during precheck and the data synchronization task cannot be started. For more information, see Modify the parameters of an ApsaraDB RDS for MySQL instance.
      Important
      • If the source database is a self-managed MySQL database, you must enable the binary logging feature and set the binlog_format parameter to row and the binlog_row_image parameter to full.
      • If the source database is a self-managed MySQL database deployed in a dual-primary cluster, you must set the log_slave_updates parameter to ON. This ensures that DTS can obtain all binary logs. For more information, see Create an account for a self-managed MySQL database and configure binary logging.
    • If you perform only incremental data synchronization, the binary logs of the source database are retained for at least 24 hours. If you perform both full data synchronization and incremental data synchronization, the binary logs of the source database are retained for at least seven days. After full data synchronization is complete, you can set the retention period to more than 24 hours. Otherwise, DTS may fail to obtain the binary logs and the task may fail. In exceptional circumstances, data inconsistency or loss may occur. Make sure that you configure the retention period of binary logs in accordance with the preceding requirements. Otherwise, the Service Level Agreement (SLA) of DTS does not guarantee service reliability or performance. For more information about binary log files of an ApsaraDB RDS for MySQL instance, see View and delete the binary log files of an ApsaraDB RDS for MySQL instance.

Other limits
  • To ensure compatibility, the version of the destination database must be the same as or later than that of the source database. If the version of the destination database is earlier than that of the source database, database compatibility issues may occur.
  • When DTS runs a two-way data synchronization task, DTS creates a database named dts in the destination database to prevent circular synchronization. When the task is running, do not modify the dts database.
  • If the source or destination database is located in a region outside the Chinese mainland, data can be synchronized only within this region. Cross-region two-way synchronization is not supported. For example, if the source instance resides in the Japan (Tokyo) region, data can be synchronized only within the Japan (Tokyo) region and cannot be synchronized to the Germany (Frankfurt) region.
  • Before you synchronize data, evaluate the impact of data synchronization on the performance of the source and destination databases. We recommend that you synchronize data during off-peak hours. During initial full data synchronization, DTS uses read and write resources of the source and destination databases. This may increase the loads on the database servers.
  • During initial full data synchronization, concurrent INSERT operations cause fragmentation in the tables of the destination database. After initial full data synchronization is complete, the size of the used tablespace of the destination database is larger than that of the source database.
  • If you select one or more tables instead of an entire database as the objects to be synchronized, do not use tools such as pt-online-schema-change to perform DDL operations on the tables during data synchronization. Otherwise, data may fail to be synchronized.

    You can use Data Management (DMS) to perform online DDL operations. For more information, see Perform lock-free DDL operations.

  • By default, DTS disables FOREIGN KEY constraints for the destination database in a data synchronization task. Therefore, specific operations such as the cascade and delete operations of the source database are not synchronized to the destination database.
  • If a table is synchronized in both the forward and reverse synchronization and both the full data and incremental data of the table are synchronized in the forward synchronization, DTS synchronizes only the incremental data of the table in the reverse synchronization.
Special cases
If the source database is a self-managed MySQL database, take note of the following items:
  • If you perform a primary/secondary switchover on the source database when the data synchronization task is running, the task fails.
  • DTS calculates synchronization latency based on the timestamp of the latest synchronized data in the destination database and the current timestamp in the source database. If no DML operation is performed on the source database for an extended period of time, the synchronization latency may be inaccurate. If the latency of the synchronization task is excessively high, you can perform a DML operation on the source database to update the latency.
    Note If you select an entire database as the object to be synchronized, you can create a heartbeat table. The heartbeat table is updated or receives data every second.
  • DTS executes the CREATE DATABASE IF NOT EXISTS 'test' statement in the source database as scheduled to move forward the binary log file position.
  • If the source self-managed MySQL database is the source database of the two-way synchronization task and other DTS tasks, you must add the log_slave_updates=1 code to the my.cnf file in the /etc directory of the source database. Then, restart the source database. Otherwise, the incremental data in the reverse synchronization is not recorded in the binary logs of the source self-managed MySQL database. In this case, data may be inconsistent between the source and destination databases of other DTS tasks.

Conflict detection

To ensure data consistency, make sure that data records with the same primary key, business primary key, or unique key are updated only on one of the synchronization nodes. If data records are updated on both nodes, DTS responds to conflicts based on the conflict resolution policy that you specify for the data synchronization task.

DTS checks and fixes conflicts to maximize the stability of two-way synchronization instances. DTS can detect the following types of conflicts:

  • Uniqueness conflicts caused by INSERT operations

    INSERT operations that do not comply with the uniqueness constraint cannot be synchronized. For example, if a record with the same primary key value is inserted into the two synchronization nodes at almost the same time, one of the inserted records fails to be synchronized. The synchronization fails because a record with the same primary key value already exists on the other node.

  • Inconsistent records caused by UPDATE operations

    • If the records to be updated do not exist in the destination instance, DTS converts the UPDATE operation into an INSERT operation. However, uniqueness conflicts may occur.

    • The primary keys or unique keys of the records to insert may conflict with those of existing records in the destination instance.

  • Non-existent records to be deleted

    The records to be deleted do not exist in the destination instance. In this case, DTS ignores the DELETE operation regardless of the conflict resolution policy that you specify.

Important
  • During two-way synchronization, the system time of the source and destination instances may be different. Synchronization latency may occur. For these reasons, DTS does not ensure that the conflict detection mechanism can prevent all data conflicts. To perform two-way synchronization, make sure that records with the same primary key, business primary key, or unique key are updated only on one of the synchronization nodes.

  • DTS provides conflict resolution policies to prevent conflicts that may occur during data synchronization. You can select a conflict resolution policy when you configure two-way data synchronization.

Supported synchronization topologies

For more information about synchronization topologies that are supported by DTS, see Synchronization topologies.

    If the source or destination database is an Alibaba Cloud database instance, such as an ApsaraDB RDS for MySQL or ApsaraDB for MongoDB instance, DTS automatically adds the CIDR blocks of DTS servers to the whitelist of the instance. If the source or destination database is a self-managed database hosted on an Elastic Compute Service (ECS) instance, DTS automatically adds the CIDR blocks of DTS servers to the security group rules of the ECS instance, and you must ensure that the ECS instance can access the database. If the source or destination database is a self-managed database that is deployed in a data center or provided by a third-party cloud service provider, you must manually add the CIDR blocks of DTS servers to the whitelist of the database to allow DTS to access the database. For more information, see Add the CIDR blocks of DTS servers to the security settings of on-premises databases.

    Warning

    If the CIDR blocks of DTS servers are automatically or manually added to the whitelist of the database or instance, or to the ECS security group rules, security risks may arise. Therefore, before you use DTS to synchronize data, you must understand and acknowledge the potential risks and take preventive measures, including but not limited to the following measures: enhancing the security of your username and password, limiting the ports that are exposed, authenticating API calls, regularly checking the whitelist or ECS security group rules and forbidding unauthorized CIDR blocks, or connecting the database to DTS by using Express Connect, VPN Gateway, or Smart Access Gateway.

  5. Configure objects to synchronize and advanced settings.

    • Basic SettingsBasic Settings

      Parameter or setting

      Description

      Synchronization Type

      By default, Incremental Data Synchronization is selected. You must also select Schema Synchronization and Full Data Synchronization. After the precheck is complete, DTS synchronizes the historical data of selected objects from the source instance to the destination instance. The historical data is the basis for subsequent incremental synchronization.

      Processing Mode of Conflicting Tables

      • Precheck and Report Errors: checks whether the destination database contains tables that have the same names as tables in the source database. If the source and destination databases do not contain tables that have identical table names, the precheck is passed. Otherwise, an error is returned during the precheck and the data synchronization task cannot be started.

        Note

        You can use the object name mapping feature to rename the tables that are synchronized to the destination database. You can use this feature if the source and destination databases contain identical table names and the tables in the destination database cannot be deleted or renamed. For more information, see Map object names.

      • Ignore Errors and Proceed: skips the precheck for identical table names in the source and destination databases.

        Warning

        If you select Ignore Errors and Proceed, data inconsistency may occur, and your business may be exposed to potential risks.

        • If the source and destination databases have the same schemas, and a data record has the same primary key value as an existing data record in the destination database:

          • During full data synchronization, DTS does not synchronize the data record to the destination database. The existing data record in the destination database is retained.

          • During incremental data synchronization, DTS synchronizes the data record to the destination database. The existing data record in the destination database is overwritten.

        • If the source and destination databases have different schemas, data may fail to be initialized, only some columns are synchronized, or the data synchronization task fails. Operate with caution.

      • Precheck and Report Errors: checks whether the destination database contains collections that have the same names as collections in the source database. If the source and destination databases do not contain collections that have identical collection names, the precheck is passed. Otherwise, an error is returned during the precheck and the data synchronization task cannot be started.

        Note

        You can use the object name mapping feature to rename the collections that are synchronized to the destination database. You can use this feature if the source and destination databases contain collections that have identical names and the collections in the destination database cannot be deleted or renamed. For more information, see Rename an object to be synchronized.

      • Ignore Errors and Proceed: skips the precheck for identical collection names in the source and destination databases.

        Warning

        If you select Ignore Errors and Proceed, data inconsistency may occur, and your business may be exposed to potential risks.

        • DTS does not synchronize data records that have the same primary key values as data records in the destination database.

        • Data may fail to be initialized, only some columns are synchronized, or the data synchronization task fails.

      • Precheck and Report Errors: checks whether the destination database contains tables that have the same names as tables in the source database. If the source and destination databases do not contain tables that have identical table names, the precheck is passed. Otherwise, an error is returned during the precheck and the data synchronization task cannot be started.

      • Ignore Errors and Proceed: skips the precheck for identical table names in the source and destination databases.

        Warning

        If you select Ignore Errors and Proceed, data inconsistency may occur, and your business may be exposed to potential risks.

        • If the source and destination databases have the same schemas, and a data record has the same primary key value as an existing data record in the destination database:

          • During full data synchronization, DTS does not synchronize the data record to the destination database. The existing data record in the destination database is retained.

          • During incremental data synchronization, DTS synchronizes the data record to the destination database. The existing data record in the destination database is overwritten.

        • If the source and destination databases have different schemas, data may fail to be initialized, only some columns are synchronized, or the data synchronization task fails. Operate with caution.

      Synchronization Topology

      Select Two-way Synchronization.

      Exclude DDL Statements

      • Yes: excludes DDL operations.

      • No: synchronizes DDL operations.

        Important

        Limits on DDL synchronization directions: DDL operations can be synchronized only in the forward direction (from the source database to the destination database). DDL operations are ignored in the reverse direction (from the destination database to the source database). Therefore, you can set this parameter only when you configure the task in the forward direction.

      Conflict Resolution Policy

      If you encounter the conflicts described in the Conflict detection section of this topic, select a conflict resolution policy based on your business requirements.

      • TaskFailed

        If a conflict occurs during data synchronization, the data synchronization task reports an error and exits the process. The task enters a failed state, and you must manually resolve the conflict.

      • Ignore

        If a conflict occurs during data synchronization, the data synchronization task ignores the current statement and continues the process. The conflicting records in the destination database are used.

      • Overwrite

        If a conflict occurs during data synchronization, the conflicting records in the destination database are overwritten.

      Note

      If a latency occurs when you pause or restart a data synchronization task, the selected conflict resolution policy does not take effect during the latency. By default, data in the destination database is overwritten by the data that is synchronized during the latency.

      Select Objects

      Select one or more objects from the Source Objects section and click the Rightwards arrow icon to add the objects to the Selected Objects section.

      Note

      You can select columns, tables, or databases as the objects to be synchronized. If you select tables or columns as the objects to be synchronized, DTS does not synchronize other objects such as views, triggers, or stored procedures to the destination database.

      Rename Databases and Tables

      • To rename an object that you want to synchronize to the destination instance, right-click the object in the Selected Objects section. For more information, see Map the name of a single object.

      • To rename multiple objects at a time, click Batch Edit in the upper-right corner of the Selected Objects section. For more information, see Map multiple object names at a time.

      Filter data

      You can specify WHERE conditions to filter data. For more information, see Use SQL conditions to filter data.

      Select the SQL operations to be synchronized

      In the Selected Objects section, right-click an object. In the dialog box that appears, select the SQL operations that you want to synchronize. For more information, see SQL operations that can be synchronized.

    • Advanced SettingsAdvanced Settings

      Parameter

      Description

      Set Alerts

      Specifies whether to configure alerting for the data synchronization task. If the task fails or the synchronization latency exceeds the specified threshold, alert contacts will receive notifications. Valid values:

      Capitalization of Object Names in Destination Instance

      The capitalization of database names, table names, and column names in the destination instance. By default, DTS default policy is selected. You can select other options to ensure that the capitalization of object names is consistent with that in the source or destination database. For more information, see Specify the capitalization of object names in the destination instance.

      Copy the temporary table of the Online DDL tool that is generated in the source table to the destination database

      If you use Data Management (DMS) or the gh-ost tool to perform online DDL operations on the source database, you can specify whether to synchronize the data of temporary tables generated by online DDL operations.

      Important

      You cannot use tools such as pt-online-schema-change to perform online DDL operations on the source database. Otherwise, the DTS task fails.

      • Yes: DTS synchronizes the data of temporary tables generated by online DDL operations.

        Note

        If online DDL operations generate a large amount of data, the data synchronization task may take an extended period of time to complete.

      • No, Adapt to DMS Online DDL: DTS does not synchronize the data of temporary tables generated by online DDL operations. Only the original DDL operations that are performed by using Data Management (DMS) are synchronized.

        Note

        If you select this option, the tables in the destination database may be locked.

      • No, Adapt to gh-ost: DTS does not synchronize the data of temporary tables generated by online DDL operations. Only the original DDL operations that are performed by using the gh-ost tool are synchronized. You can use the default or custom regular expressions to filter out the shadow tables of the gh-ost tool and tables that are not required.

        Note

        If you select this option, the tables in the destination database may be locked.

      Specify the retry time range for failed connections

      The retry time range for failed connections. If the source or destination database fails to be connected after the data synchronization task is started, DTS immediately retries a connection within the time range. Valid values: 10 to 1440. Unit: minutes. Default value: 720. We recommend that you set the parameter to a value greater than 30. If DTS reconnects to the source and destination databases within the specified time range, DTS resumes the data synchronization task. Otherwise, the data synchronization task fails.

      Note
      • If you set different retry time ranges for multiple DTS tasks that have the same source or destination database, the shortest retry time range that is set takes precedence.

      • When DTS retries a connection, you are charged for the DTS instance. We recommend that you specify the retry time range based on your business requirements. You can also release the DTS instance at your earliest opportunity after the source and destination instances are released.

  6. Click Next: Save Task Settings and Precheck in the lower part of the page.

    You can move the pointer over Next: Save Task Settings and Precheck and click Preview OpenAPI parameters to view the parameter settings of the API operation that is called to configure the instance.
