Re: Difference between replication and cluster solutions?
Hi,
Yes, that is one of the differences. However there are many other differences as well.
Replication is asynchronous and each server contains a full set of the data. Also it currently only supports a master-slave setup.
In clustering, the data is replicated synchronously and partitioned automatically. That means each node will only contain a fragment of the information, and on querying, the front end mysqld server will retrieve the information from all of the nodes neccesary.
Each have their own role where they fit best.

Harrison
