This document provides a short overview of the **readwritesplit** router module
and its intended use case scenarios. It also displays all router configuration
parameters with their descriptions. A list of current limitations of the module
is included and use examples are provided.
## Overview
The **readwritesplit** router is designed to increase the read-only processing capability of a cluster while maintaining consistency. This is achieved by splitting the query load into read and write queries. Read queries, which do not modify data, are spread across multiple nodes while all write queries will be sent to a single node.

capability of a cluster while maintaining consistency. This is achieved by
splitting the query load into read and write queries. Read queries, which do not
modify data, are spread across multiple nodes while all write queries will be
sent to a single node.
The router is designed to be used with a traditional Master-Slave replication cluster. It automatically detects changes in the master server and will use the current master server of the cluster. With a Galera cluster, one can achieve a resilient setup and easy master failover by using one of the Galera nodes as a Write-Master node, where all write queries are routed, and spreading the read load over all the nodes.

### Routing to Master
Routing to master is important for data consistency and because majority of writes are written to binlog and thus become replicated to slaves.
Routing to master is important for data consistency and because majority of
writes are written to binlog and thus become replicated to slaves.
The following operations are routed to master:
* write statements,
* all statements within an open transaction,
* stored procedure calls, and
* user-defined function calls.
* stored procedure calls
* user-defined function calls
* DDL statements (`DROP`|`CREATE`|`ALTER TABLE` … etc.)
* `EXECUTE` (prepared) statements
* all statements using temporary tables
In addition to these, if the **readwritesplit** service is configured with the `max_slave_replication_lag` parameter, and if all slaves suffer from too much replication lag, then statements will be routed to the _Master_. (There might be other similar configuration parameters in the future which limit the number of statements that will be routed to slaves.)
In addition to these, if the **readwritesplit** service is configured with the
`max_slave_replication_lag` parameter, and if all slaves suffer from too much
replication lag, then statements will be routed to the _Master_. (There might be
other similar configuration parameters in the future which limit the number of
statements that will be routed to slaves.)
### Routing to Slaves
The ability to route some statements to *Slave*s is important because it also decreases the load targeted to master. Moreover, it is possible to have multiple slaves to share the load in contrast to single master.

### Routing to every session backend
A third class of statements includes those which modify session data, such as session system variables, user-defined variables, the default database, etc. We call them session commands, and they must be replicated as they affect the future results of read and write operations, so they must be executed on all servers that could execute statements on behalf of this client.

call them session commands, and they must be replicated as they affect the

servers that could execute statements on behalf of this client.
Session commands include for example:
* `SET` statements
* `USE `*`<dbname>`*
* system/user-defined variable assignments embedded in read-only statements, such as `SELECT (@myvar := 5)`
* system/user-defined variable assignments embedded in read-only statements, such
as `SELECT (@myvar := 5)`
* `PREPARE` statements
* `QUIT`, `PING`, `STMT RESET`, `CHANGE USER`, etc. commands
**NOTE: if variable assignment is embedded in a write statement it is routed to _Master_ only. For example, `INSERT INTO t1 values(@myvar:=5, 7)` would be routed to _Master_ only.**

The router stores all of the executed session commands so that in case of a slave failure, a replacement slave can be chosen and the session command history can be repeated on that new slave. This means that the router stores each executed session command for the duration of the session. Applications that use long-running sessions might cause MariaDB MaxScale to consume a growing amount of memory unless the sessions are closed. This can be solved by setting a connection timeout on the application side.

#SchemaRouter Router
# SchemaRouter Router
The SchemaRouter router provides an easy and manageable sharding solution by building a single logical database server from multiple separate ones. Each database is shown to the client and queries targeting unique databases are routed to their respective servers. In addition to providing simple database-based sharding, the schemarouter router also enables cross-node session variable usage by routing all queries that modify the session to all nodes.

If you are connecting directly to a database or have different users on some of the servers, you need to get the authentication data from all the servers. You can control this with the `auth_all_servers` parameter. With this parameter, MariaDB MaxScale forms a union of all the users and their grants from all the servers. By default, the schemarouter will fetch the authentication data from all servers.
For example, if two servers have the database 'shard' and the following rights are granted only on one server, all queries targeting the database 'shard' would be routed to the server where the grants were given.
