ProxySQL 1.4.5 and proxysql-admin (2018-02-15)

ProxySQL 1.4.5, released by ProxySQL, is now available for download in the Percona repository along with an updated version of Percona’s proxysql-admin tool.

ProxySQL is a high-performance proxy, currently for MySQL, and database servers in the MySQL ecosystem (like Percona Server for MySQL and MariaDB). It acts as an intermediary for client requests seeking resources from the database. René Cannaò created ProxySQL for DBAs as a means of solving complex replication topology issues.

The ProxySQL 1.4.5 source and binary packages are available from the Percona download page for ProxySQL include ProxySQL Admin – a tool developed by Percona to configure Percona XtraDB Cluster nodes into ProxySQL. Docker images are available as well. You can download the original ProxySQL from GitHub. ProxySQL offers the ProxySQL documentation.

  • PSQLADM-6: If the cluster node goes offline, the proxysql_node_monitor script now sets the node status as OFFLINE_HARD, and does not remove it from the ProxySQL database. Also, logging is consistent regardless of the cluster node online status.

  • PSQLADM-30: Validation was added for the host priority file.

  • PSQLADM-33: Added –proxysql-datadir option to run the proxysql-admin script with a custom ProxySQL data directory.

  • Also, BATS test suite was added for the proxysql-admin testing.

Bug fixes

  • PSQLADM-5: Percona XtraDB Cluster (PXC) mode specified with proxysql-admin with use of –mode parameter was not persistent.

  • PSQLADM-8: ProxySQL High CPU load took place when mysqld was hanging.

ProxySQL is available under Open Source license GPLv3.
