Introducing Tungsten Replicator (AMI): The High Performance Replication Engine For MySQL, MariaDB & Percona Server

We’re excited to announce the availability on the Amazon Marketplace of the new Tungsten Replicator (AMI).

Tungsten Replicator (AMI) is a replication engine that provides high-performance and improved replication functionality over the native MySQL replication solution and provides an ability to apply real-time MySQL data feed into a range of analytics and big data databases.

Target Databases Available as of Today

• AWS Redshift
• Kafka
• MySQL
• PostgreSQL
• Vertica

More target databases will be introduced later this year.

Top Product Benefits

• Multiple Targets: Enabling users to replicate directly into popular analytic repositories such as MySQL (all variations), PostgreSQL, AWS RedShift, Kafka and Vertica​.
• Cost not tied to transaction volume: Unlimited real-time transactional data transfer to eliminate escalating replication costs of ETL-based alternatives.
• Multi-master: Global, real-time transaction processing with flexible multimaster replication configurations between clusters. (MySQL as source and target only)

Top Product Highlights

1. Tungsten Replicator (AMI) features: platform agnostic, real-time replication between database instances, filtering of data down to row-level, parallel replication and SSL for added security.
2. Tungsten Replicator (AMI) includes the ability to apply data into many replication targets in addition to MySQL (all versions) such as MySQL (all variations), PostgreSQL, AWS RedShift, Kafka and Vertica, by enabling the replicated information to be transformed after it has been read from the data server to match the functionality or structure in the target server.
3. For MySQL users the enhanced functionality and information provided by Tungsten Replicator (AMI) allows for global transaction IDs, advanced topology support such as multi-master, star, and fan-in, and enhanced latency identification, as well as filtering and transforming data in-flight​.

Replicate from AWS Aurora, AWS RDS MySQL, MySQL, MariaDB & Percona Server from as little as $0.50/hour

With Tungsten Replicator (AMI) on AWS, users can replicate GB’s of data from as little as 50c/hour:

1. Go to the AWS Marketplace, and search for Tungsten, or click here
2. Choose and Subscribe to the Tungsten Replicator AMI of your choice
3. Pay by the hour
4. When launched, the host will have all the prerequisites in place and a simple “wizard” runs on first launch and asks the user questions about the source and/or target and then configures it all for them

Users can also start by trying one instance of the AMI for 14 days. There will be no hourly software charges for that instance, but AWS infrastructure charges still apply. Free Trials will automatically convert to a paid hourly subscription upon expiration.

Tungsten Replicator OSS

For those of you who might wonder: Tungsten Replicator OSS is, for all practical purposes, obsolete. ​While Tungsten Replicator OSS may still be available in various repositories, all OSS versions are outdated.

We recommend you try out the new Tungsten Replicator (AMI); or contact us to find out more about the stand-alone, commercial product.
