TDSQL-C for MySQL clusters come in either pre-configured resources or Serverless forms, both supporting multi-AZ deployments. Compared to single-AZ deployment, multi-AZ deployment offers higher disaster recovery capabilities to protect the database against instance failures or AZ interruptions, capable of withstanding data center-level failures. Multi-AZ deployment provides database instances with High Availability and failover support. A multi-AZ structure combines several single-AZs within the same region into a physical zone at a level above single-AZ. This article introduces multi-AZ deployment for clusters with pre-configured resources. For details on multi-AZ deployment for Serverless instance types, see Multi-AZ deployment. Prerequisites
The cluster region has at least two AZs.
The target AZ has sufficient computing resources.
Database version requirements:
Database version 5.7 with kernel minor version 2.0.15 or above.
Database version 8.0 with kernel minor version 3.0.1 or above.

How to Implement Multi-AZ Architecture
Regarding the multi-AZ architecture, it can be achieved by creating a new cluster via the console. Existing single-AZ clusters will also be upgraded to multi-AZ clusters. This upgrade is automatically completed through online data migration, with no impact on your business. For more details, see Setting Multi-AZ Deployment. Multi-AZ Billing Description
There are no additional fees for the multi-AZ feature for the time being.
Note:
Currently, single-AZ clusters can also be upgraded to multi-AZ clusters for free.
On the cluster list page, display according to the view mode actually used:
1. Click the cluster in the left side of the Cluster List page to enter the cluster management page. 2. On the cluster management page, under Deployment Mode, and in the Architecture section of the cluster details, you can see the deployment mode and primary and secondary availability zones of the cluster.
1. The Cluster List page displays the information of the cluster's primary AZ. 2. On the cluster details page, you can view the availability zones where the cluster deployment is distributed in Basic Info and Availability Info sections.
