目前较为常见的mysql读写分离分为两种：
1、 基于程序代码内部实现：在代码中对select操作分发到从库；其它操作由主库执行；这类方法也是目前生产环境应用最广泛，知名的如DISCUZ X2。优点是性能较好，因为在程序代码中实现，不需要增加额外的设备作为硬件开支。缺点是需要开发人员来实现，运维人员无从下手。
2、 基于中间代理层实现：我们都知道代理一般是位于客户端和服务器之间，代理服务器接到客户端请求后通过判断然后转发到后端数据库。在这有两个代表性程序
mysql-proxy：mysql-proxy为mysql开源项目，通过其自带的lua脚本进行sql判断，虽然是mysql官方产品，但是mysql官方并不建议将mysql-proxy用到生产环境。
amoeba：由陈思儒开发，作者曾就职于阿里巴巴，现就职于盛大。该程序由java语言进行开发，目前只听说阿里巴巴将其用于生产环境。另外，此项目严重缺少维护和推广（作者有个官方博客，很多用户反馈的问题发现作者不理睬）
经 过上述简单的比较，通过程序代码实现mysql读写分离自然是一个不错的选择。但是并不是所有的应用都适合在程序代码中实现读写分离，像大型SNS、 B2C这类应用可以在代码中实现，因为这样对程序代码本身改动较小；像一些大型复杂的java应用，这种类型的应用在代码中实现对代码改动就较大了。所 以，像这种应用一般就会考虑使用代理层来实现。
下面我们看一下如何搭建mysql-proxy来实现mysql读写分离
环境拓扑如下：
关于mysql、mysql主从的搭建，在此不再演示，如下的操作均在mysql-proxy（192.168.1.200）服务器进行
一、安装mysql-proxy
1、安装lua (mysql-proxy需要使用lua脚本进行数据转发)
#tar zxvf lua-5.1.4.tar.gz
#cd lua-5.1.4
#vi Makefile，修改INSTALL_TOP= /usr/local/lua
#make posix
#make install
2、安装libevent
#tar zxvf libevent-2.0.8-rc.tar.gz
#cd libevent-2.0.8-rc
#./configure --prefix=/usr/local/libevent
#make && make install
3、安装check
#tar zxvf check-0.9.8.tar.gz
#cd check-0.9.8
#./configure && make && make install
4、安装mysql客户端
#tar zxvf mysql-5.0.92.tar.gz
#cd mysql-5.0.92
#./configure --without-server && make && make install
5、设置环境变量 （安装mysql-proxy所需变量）
#vi /etc/profile
export LUA_CFLAGS="-I/usr/local/lua/include" LUA_LIBS="-L/usr/local/lua/lib -llua -ldl" LDFLAGS="-L/usr/local/libevent/lib -lm"
export CPPFLAGS="-I/usr/local/libevent/include"
export CFLAGS="-I/usr/local/libevent/include"
# source /etc/profile
6、安装mysql-proxy
#tar zxvf mysql-proxy-0.6.0.tar.gz
#cd mysql-proxy-0.6.0
# ./configure --prefix=/usr/local/mysql-proxy --with-mysql --with-lua
#make && make install
7、启动mysql-proxy
本次对两台数据库实现了读写分离；mysql-master为可读可写，mysql-slave为只读
#/usr/local/mysql-proxy/sbin/mysql-proxy --proxy-backend-addresses=192.168.1.201:3306 --proxy-read-only-backend-addresses=192.168.1.202:3306 --proxy-lua-script=/usr/local/mysql-proxy/share/mysql-proxy/rw-splitting.lua &
注：如果正常情况下启动后终端不会有任何提示信息，mysql-proxy启动后会启动两个端口4040和4041，4040用于SQL转发，4041用于管理mysql-proxy。如有多个mysql-slave可以依次在后面添加
二、测试
1、连接测试
因为默认情况下mysql数据库不允许用户在远程连接
mysql>grant all privileges on *.* to identified by '123456';
mysql>flush privileges;
客户端连接
#mysql -uroot -p123456 -h192.168.1.200 -P4040
2、读写分离测试
为了测试出mysql读写分离的真实性，在测试之前，需要开启两台mysql的log功能，然后在mysql-slave服务器停止复制
① 、在两台mysql配置文件my.cnf中加入log=query.log，然后重启
② 、在mysql-slave上执行SQL语句stop slave
③ 、在两台mysql上执行#tail -f /usr/local/mysql/var/query.log
④ 、在客户端上连接mysql（三个连接以上），然后执行create、select等SQL语句，观察两台mysql的日志有何变化
注：生产环境中除了进行程序调试外，其它不要开启mysql查询日志，因为查询日志记录了客户端的所有语句，频繁的IO操作将会导致mysql整体性能下降
总 结：在上述环境中，mysql-proxy和mysql-master、mysql-slave三台服务器均存在单点故障。如果在可用性要求较高的场合， 单点隐患是绝对不允许的。为了避免mysql-proxy单点隐患有两种方法，一种方法是mysql-proxy配合keepalived做双机，另一种 方法是将mysql-proxy和应用服务安装到同一台服务器上；为了避免mysql-master单点故障可以使用DRBD+heartbear做双 机；避免mysql-slave单点故障增加多台mysql-slave即可，因为mysql-proxy会自动屏蔽后端发生故障的mysql- slave。
