The key to installing MySQL 8.0 is to follow the steps and pay attention to common problems. It is recommended to use the MSI installation package on Windows. The steps include downloading the installation package, running the installer, selecting the installation type, setting the root password, enabling service startup, and paying attention to port conflicts or manually configuring the ZIP version; Linux (such as Ubuntu) is installed through apt, and the steps are to update the source, installing the server, running security scripts, checking service status, and modifying the root authentication method; no matter which platform, you should modify the default password, create ordinary users, set up firewalls, adjust configuration files to optimize character sets and other parameters to ensure security and normal use.

Enable MySQL's SSL/TLS encryption connection can effectively prevent data leakage. The specific steps are as follows: 1. Confirm that the MySQL version supports SSL, and check whether the return value is YES through SHOWVARIABLESLIKE'have_ssl'; 2. Prepare a PEM format certificate file (ca.pem, server-cert.pem, server-key.pem), which can be generated through OpenSSL or obtained from CA; 3. Modify the MySQL configuration file, add ssl-ca, ssl-cert and ssl-key paths in the [mysqld] section and restart the service; 4. Force the client to use SSL, and use CREATEUSER

The default user name of MySQL is usually 'root', but the password varies according to the installation environment; in some Linux distributions, the root account may be authenticated by auth_socket plug-in and cannot log in with the password; when installing tools such as XAMPP or WAMP under Windows, root users usually have no password or use common passwords such as root, mysql, etc.; if you forget the password, you can reset it by stopping the MySQL service, starting in --skip-grant-tables mode, updating the mysql.user table to set a new password and restarting the service; note that the MySQL8.0 version requires additional authentication plug-ins.

MySQL's binary log (binlog) is a binary log that records database change operations, and is used in scenarios such as data recovery, master-slave replication and auditing. 1. Binlog is a logical log file that records all operation events that modify data, such as INSERT, UPDATE, DELETE, etc., but does not include SELECT or SHOW query statements; 2. Its main uses include: data recovery through replay logs, supporting master-slave copying to achieve data synchronization, and used to analyze operation records to meet audit requirements; 3. Enable binlog requires setting log-bin, server-id, binlog_format and expire_logs_day in the configuration file.

There are three ways to modify or reset MySQLroot user password: 1. Use the ALTERUSER command to modify existing passwords, and execute the corresponding statement after logging in; 2. If you forget your password, you need to stop the service and start it in --skip-grant-tables mode before modifying; 3. The mysqladmin command can be used to modify it directly by modifying it. Each method is suitable for different scenarios and the operation sequence must not be messed up. After the modification is completed, verification must be made and permission protection must be paid attention to.

GTID (Global Transaction Identifier) ??solves the complexity of replication and failover in MySQL databases by assigning a unique identity to each transaction. 1. It simplifies replication management, automatically handles log files and locations, allowing slave servers to request transactions based on the last executed GTID. 2. Ensure consistency across servers, ensure that each transaction is applied only once on each server, and avoid data inconsistency. 3. Improve troubleshooting efficiency. GTID includes server UUID and serial number, which is convenient for tracking transaction flow and accurately locate problems. These three core advantages make MySQL replication more robust and easy to manage, significantly improving system reliability and data integrity.

MySQL main library failover mainly includes four steps. 1. Fault detection: Regularly check the main library process, connection status and simple query to determine whether it is downtime, set up a retry mechanism to avoid misjudgment, and can use tools such as MHA, Orchestrator or Keepalived to assist in detection; 2. Select the new main library: select the most suitable slave library to replace it according to the data synchronization progress (Seconds_Behind_Master), binlog data integrity, network delay and load conditions, and perform data compensation or manual intervention if necessary; 3. Switch topology: Point other slave libraries to the new master library, execute RESETMASTER or enable GTID, update the VIP, DNS or proxy configuration to
