Security<br />

It should be noted right from the start that <strong>MySQL</strong> <strong>Cluster</strong> nodes have no security in their<br />

<strong>com</strong>munications. This is because the overhead required would cause a very large<br />

performance hit. So all nodes should be on a private LAN. The added advantage is having<br />

the cluster on a private LAN can stop any other network chatter from delaying node<br />

<strong>com</strong>munications.<br />

<strong>MySQL</strong> Authentication<br />

The privileges system used by <strong>MySQL</strong> is stored using MyISAM tables. Due to some<br />

internal restrictions changing these to the NDB engine will cause many <strong>com</strong>plications,<br />

therefore all privileges should be synchronized externally (using a script for instance).<br />
