Introduction
The binary log (binlog) in MySQL is essential for replication, point-in-time recovery, and tracking database changes. It plays a crucial role in ensuring data integrity and high availability for database professionals.
Key Concepts
The binary log records all database modifications, enabling asynchronous replication and disaster recovery. It supports different logging formats—statement-based, row-based, and mixed—each suited for specific use cases. Optimizing binlog settings improves database performance and storage efficiency.
