MySQL replication is a process that allows data from one database server to be automatically copied to one or more servers.

MySQL supports a number of replication topologies with Master/Slave topology being one of the most well-known topologies in which one database server acts as the master, while one or more servers act as slaves. By default, the replication is asynchronous where the master sends events that describe database modifications to its binary log and slaves request the events when they are ready.

This tutorial covers a basic example of MySQL Master/Slave replication with one master and one slave server on Ubuntu 18.04. The same steps apply for MariaDB.

This type of replication topology is best suited for deploying of read replicas for read scaling, live databases backup for disaster recovery and for analytics jobs.
