DBdeployer Bringing the project back to life in 2026

on YouTube ↗28m

" summary

Revives DBdeployer for 2026 by actually fixing and extending it: fixed replicate-from script to use MySQL’s new source/replica terminology, adds InnoDB Cluster and MySQL Router support and new flavors (Vitess/TiDB/TiKV), and validates deployments (3‑node clusters, default 6‑node cluster‑sets, arbitrary N nodes) in demos where router read/write endpoints respond. Work involves editing Go CLI code and test scripts, using AI tools (ChatGPT and Cursor) to read, plan and implement patches; downloads, sandbox binaries and admin commands all behave as expected.
