Performance testing MySQL migration environments using query playback and traffic mirroring – Part 3
This is the third post in a series where we dive deep into performance testing of MySQL environments being migrated from on premises. In Part 1, we compared the query playback and traffic mirroring approaches at a high level. In Part 2, we showed how to set up and configure query playback. In this post, we show you how to set up and configure traffic mirroring.

Performance testing MySQL migration environments using query playback and traffic mirroring – Part 1
In this series of posts, we dive deep into performance testing of MySQL environments being migrated from on-premises to AWS. In this post, we review two different approaches to testing migrated environments with traffic that is representative of real production traffic: capturing and replaying traffic using a playback application, and mirroring traffic as it comes in using a proxy. This means you’re validating your environment using realistic data access patterns.
