Webinar slides: How to deploy and manage HAProxy, MaxScale or ProxySQL with C...Severalnines
Proxies are building blocks of high availability setups for MySQL. They can detect failed nodes and route queries to hosts which are still available. If your master failed and you had to promote one of your slaves, proxies will detect such topology changes and route your traffic accordingly.
More advanced proxies can do much more, such as route traffic based on precise query rules, cache queries or mirror them. They can be even used to implement different types of sharding.
In this webinar we talk about support for proxies for MySQL HA setups in ClusterControl: how they differ and what their pros and cons are. And we show you how you can easily deploy and manage HAProxy, MaxScale and ProxySQL from ClusterControl during a live demo.

TrustArc Webinar: Consumer Expectations vs Corporate Realities on Data Broker...TrustArc
Most consumers believe they’re making informed decisions about their personal data—adjusting privacy settings, blocking trackers, and opting out where they can. However, our new research reveals that while awareness is high, taking meaningful action is still lacking. On the corporate side, many organizations report strong policies for managing third-party data and consumer consent yet fall short when it comes to consistency, accountability and transparency.
This session will explore the research findings from TrustArc’s Privacy Pulse Survey, examining consumer attitudes toward personal data collection and practical suggestions for corporate practices around purchasing third-party data.
Attendees will learn:
- Consumer awareness around data brokers and what consumers are doing to limit data collection
- How businesses assess third-party vendors and their consent management operations
- Where business preparedness needs improvement
- What these trends mean for the future of privacy governance and public trust
This discussion is essential for privacy, risk, and compliance professionals who want to ground their strategies in current data and prepare for what’s next in the privacy landscape.

§ Issue - Node Eviction and Clusterware Instability
§ Example
§ In a four-node Oracle RAC cluster, nodes 1 and 2 have glibc version 2.17-307 installed, while
nodes 3 and 4 have glibc version 2.17-307.el7.1 installed. This discrepancy can cause several
problems.
§ Impact
§ Node Eviction - Due to the different versions of glibc, nodes 3 and 4 might face eviction as the
clusterware detects inconsistencies in the environment.
§ Clusterware Instability - The inconsistency in glibc can cause instability in Oracle Clusterware,
leading to startup failures and communication errors.
