 Topic: MySQL Replication
+Summary: To be added.
-This is a basic introduction for mysql replications. PowerDNS will be used as an example application.
-"
-Replication enables data from one MySQL database server (the master) to be replicated to one or more MySQL database servers (the slaves). Replication is asynchronous - slaves need not be connected permanently to receive updates from the master. This means that updates can occur over long-distance connections and even over temporary or intermittent connections such as a dial-up service. Depending on the configuration, you can replicate all databases, selected databases, or even selected tables within a database." - mysql.com
