Mysql daemon management using systemd | beneifts of sysetmd for mysqld

Why we should use systemd to manage mysql daemon:
  • systemd is the System Management Deamon. 
  • systemd provides standards for controlling the Linux boot process
  • systemd is intended to replace init start-up scripts for boot process, monitoring and automatic restarts in the event of a service failure/termination
  • Starting with MySQL 5.7.6, process monitoring and auto-restarts are now handled by systemd on systems that have it
  • If mysqld fails due to a restartable failure like a crash, then systemd automatically restarts mysqld
  • multiple services are able to start at same time, improving boot times
  • You can pass other custom options to mysqld by creating additional entries/lines in /etc/sysconfig/mysql using the MYSQLD_OPTS=”option” format
  • You can also specify custom options and environment variables using the systemctl command:
        $ systemctl set-environment MYSQLD_OPTS="--general_log=1"
        The custom options can also be unset using:
       $ systemctl unset-environment MYSQLD_OPTS
  • mysqld.service: This is the systemd service definition file that tells it what service to start, specifies auto-restart settings, type of service it is and all of the dependencies between various units, etc.

Amazon RDS | Amzon Redshift | Big Data | Boost Performance with Amazon ElastiCache

Amazon RDS with Amazon ElastiCache for Performance: Amazon RDS supports - Oracle, MS SQL server, MySQL, Maria DB and PostgreSQL. It is a managed service offered by the Amazon.  Couple of customers have observed the performance issues during their journey with Amazon RDS with Oracle, MS SQL Server, MySQL, Maria DB and PostgreSQL. Amazon cloud engineers / database consultants / database architect and Amazon supports worked to-gather to boost the Amazon RDS performance by tuning the RDBMS configuration parameters using Amazon RDS parameter group , and have not achieved the SLA for Amazon RDS .  Amazon RDS with Multi AZ and Read Replica: Some of the the AWS professionals have suggested for vertical scaling of the Amazon RDS .

I would sug...
