# MaxScale by MariaDB Corporation
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
The MariaDB Corporation MaxScale is an intelligent proxy that allows forwarding of
|
|
||||||
database statements to one or more database servers using complex rules,
|
|
||||||
a semantic understanding of the database statements and the roles of
|
|
||||||
the various servers within the backend cluster of databases.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
MaxScale is designed to provide load balancing and high availability
|
|
||||||
functionality transparently to the applications. In addition it provides
|
|
||||||
a highly scalable and flexible architecture, with plugin components to
|
|
||||||
support different protocols and routing decisions.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
MaxScale is implemented in C and makes extensive use of the
|
|
||||||
asynchronous I/O capabilities of the Linux operating system. The epoll
|
|
||||||
system is used to provide the event driven framework for the input and
|
|
||||||
output via sockets.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
The protocols are implemented as external shared object modules which
|
|
||||||
can be loaded at runtime. These modules support a fixed interface,
|
|
||||||
communicating the entries points via a structure consisting of a set of
|
|
||||||
function pointers. This structure is called the "module object".
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
The code that routes the queries to the database servers is also loaded
|
|
||||||
as external shared objects and are referred to as routing modules.
|
|
||||||

||||||

|
|
||||||
