How to sync two MySQL tables?

Question

If I have a table (lets call it orders ) on one server of mine, named, for example, local . And I have this same table one another server of mine, named, for example, remote .

My problem is, what is the best way to sync these two tables?

I would like a solution that replaces a registry if the local is different of the remote one. And insert the registry if it doesn't exist on the local table.

I had tried using dump a dump command similar to this one, but didn't worked as expected:

/usr/bin/mysqldump --defaults-file=~/my/conf.cnf --skip-opt --skip-add-locks --default-character-set=latin1 --disable-keys --no-create-db --no-create-info --dump-date --compress --quick --replace --where='date > DATE_SUB(NOW(), INTERVAL 1 DAY)' mydb orders >> /backup/myDump

How can I do this? How could I do a script to do this?

Answer 2

可以说“最好”的方法是使用MySQL复制，在此处记录： http ： //dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.5/en/replication.html

Answer 3

I am solving similar problem of syncing two tables constantly.

Among all the scripts (of which most are old) I've found this actively developed app (looks promising)

I'll try it and maybe later I'll write an example.
