This guide demonstrates how to deploy a MySQL cluster with TLS encryption using KubeBlocks. TLS ensures secure communication between the MySQL client and server by encrypting data in transit, protecting sensitive information. You will learn how to deploy the cluster, connect securely using TLS, and clean up resources after testing.
Prerequisites
Before proceeding, ensure the following:
Environment Setup:
A Kubernetes cluster is up and running.
The kubectl CLI tool is configured to communicate with your cluster.
Namespace Preparation: To keep resources isolated, create a dedicated namespace for this tutorial:
kubectl create ns demo
namespace/demo created
Deploying the MySQL Semi-Synchronous Cluster
KubeBlocks uses a declarative approach for managing MySQL clusters. Below is an example configuration for deploying a MySQL cluster with 2 nodes (1 primary, 1 replicas) in semi-synchronous mode with TLS enabled.
Deploy a MySQL cluster using KubeBlocks and enable TLS encryption for secure communication between the MySQL client and server.
Establish a secure MySQL connection with TLS.
Verify the secure connection using the MySQL shell.
TLS encryption ensures secure communication by encrypting data in transit and protecting sensitive information. By following these steps, you can deploy a secure MySQL cluster on Kubernetes with ease using KubeBlocks.
