  • MaxScale Multiplexing and Caching – Part 5

    In this in-depth exploration, Kester Riley illustrates how MaxScale’s multiplexing system allows many client sessions to share far fewer backend connections. The author breaks down when multiplexing excels, where it becomes fragile, and how to design workloads so that they benefit rather than break under connection sharing.

  • MaxScale Multiplexing and Caching – Part 4

    Here, Riley shifts from theory to practice with a detailed walkthrough of how to tune MaxScale for production. The author outlines key configuration parameters, how they interact under pressure, and how to balance multiplexing, pooling, and timeouts for maximum stability in diverse traffic patterns.
