High Availability (Multi-AZ)
Last updated: 2025-03-21 14:13:20
Multi-AZ deployment protects your database against database instance failures and AZ outages. For more information on supported regions and AZs, see Regions and AZs. In TencentDB for MySQL, multiple AZs are combined to form a single multi-AZ architecture to ensure high availability and failover capability of database instances.
Note:
Two-Node and Three-Node Instances:
No matter whether the cluster instances are deployed in multiple AZs, each TencentDB for MySQL instance has a replica server that supports real-time hot backup to ensure the high availability of the database.
In multi-AZ deployment, TencentDB for MySQL will automatically preset and maintain a synced replica in different AZs.
The source database instance will be synchronously replicated across AZs to the replica to provide data redundancy, eliminate I/O freezes, and minimize latency peak during the system backup.
Cluster Edition Instances:
Supports read-only replica nodes, with a Cluster Edition instance supporting only one primary node (read-write node) and up to five replica nodes (read-only nodes).
All read-only nodes within a Cluster Edition instance support the configuration of availability zones (in the same region as the read-write node).

Supported regions

Currently, the multi-AZ deployment of TencentDB for MySQL is supported in Guangzhou, Shenzhen Finance, Shanghai, Shanghai Finance, Nanjing, Beijing, Chengdu, Hong Kong (China), Singapore, Jakarta, Bangkok, Seoul, Tokyo, Virginia, and Frankfurt regions.
