Details and architecture diagram are provided in the attachments. I would like to build an active-active, geo-redundant MySQL HA cluster across two separate physical sites, running on CentOS 10, Rocky Linux 10, or another stable RPM-based distribution you recommend. The goal is to provide the database service without downtime, with automatic failover and failback. Task details Install and tune the selected MySQL solution (Galera Cluster, InnoDB Cluster, or another technology that best supports an active-active model). Configure the required HA components, such as Pacemaker + Corosync or another recommended solution. Ensure an encrypted, high-bandwidth replication channel, but I do not require a dedicated VLAN or a VPN. Produce detailed, step-by-step documentation for installation, maintenance, and troubleshooting procedures. Demonstrate with test cases that the cluster can successfully withstand a complete outage of one site, and then return to normal operation without data loss. It is a plus if you have experience with MySQL 8, Galera, keepalived, and load balancers such as HAProxy or ProxySQL (or similar components). Please share a brief approach, the recommended software versions, and an estimated timeframe. Optional (out of scope for this project) Design and implementation of a Zabbix HA cluster as a separate engagement. This is not part of the current project, but candidates who are interested in and experienced with Zabbix HA will have an advantage.

Hello, I will design and implement an active-active, geo-redundant MySQL HA cluster across two sites using MySQL 8 with Galera (Percona XtraDB Cluster 8.0 or MariaDB Galera 10.x), or InnoDB Cluster if you prefer. The stack will run on Rocky Linux 10 (or another stable RPM-based distro you approve), with Pacemaker + Corosync for failover and either HAProxy or ProxySQL for load balancing. Replication will be encrypted with TLS to provide a high-bandwidth, secure channel without a dedicated VPN. I’ll deliver a clear, practical installation plan, tuning steps, maintenance procedures, and troubleshooting guides, plus reproducible playbooks and runbooks. The plan includes rigorous test cases to prove seamless failover and failback after a full site outage with no data loss, plus a straightforward rollback and verification process. I will also provide version recommendations, migration paths, and environment sanity checks so you have a reliable, production-ready cluster. What is your target RPO and RTO for the multi-site cluster?\n\nDo you prefer Percona XtraDB Cluster (PXC) 8.0 or MariaDB Galera 10.x as the base, or another option?\n\nWhat are the inter-site bandwidth and latency constraints, and is TLS replication mandatory?\n\nShould failover/failback be automatic with a single writable node per site, or should we allow multiple read-write nodes per site?\n\nDo you require HAProxy/ProxySQL for load balancing, and is there any monitoring/alerting integration (e.g., Zabbix) you wa

Hello, I understand you’re looking for a reliable way to implement an active-active, geo-redundant MySQL high-availability cluster across two physical sites with automatic failover and failback and no service downtime. I have direct experience designing and deploying MySQL 8–based HA architectures using Galera Cluster and InnoDB Cluster on RPM-based Linux systems, including Rocky Linux and CentOS-derived distributions, with a strong focus on data consistency, encryption, and operational stability. My approach would be to evaluate the provided architecture and select the most suitable active-active technology, typically MySQL 8 + Galera for true multi-master writes, combined with HAProxy or ProxySQL for traffic management and health checks. I will configure secure, encrypted replication channels, tune MySQL and OS parameters for low-latency cross-site replication, and implement proper quorum and split-brain protection. I will deliver a fully tested cluster that survives a full site outage and recovers cleanly without data loss, along with clear, step-by-step documentation covering installation, maintenance, monitoring hooks, and disaster recovery procedures so your team can confidently operate the platform long-term.

Hi I have extensive experience designing geo-redundant MySQL HA architectures, and I can build a fully active-active cluster across your two physical sites with zero-downtime failover. The main technical challenge is ensuring synchronous consistency and stable quorum behavior under site outage conditions, which I address using MySQL InnoDB Cluster or Galera with proper cluster quorum, flow-control tuning, and encrypted inter-node replication. I can configure Pacemaker/Corosync, keepalived, and a load-balancer layer such as HAProxy or ProxySQL to provide seamless failover and client routing. My background includes deploying MySQL 8 clusters with multi-site replication, secure transport layers, and optimized buffer/transaction settings for high write workloads. I will also provide clear installation, maintenance, and troubleshooting documentation for long-term operability. Test scenarios will validate resilience, data integrity, and full recovery after complete site loss. I can deliver a stable, production-grade HA foundation with clean operational procedures. Thanks, Hercules
