Async::MySQL

This gem is experimental and unmaintained. Please see https://github.com/socketry/db-mariadb for an event driven driver for MariaDB/MySQL.

We have some IO bound web APIs generating statistics and we sometimes have issues when using passenger due to thread/process exhaustion. In addition, we make a lot of upstream HTTP RPCs and these are also IO bound.

This library, in combination with async-http, ensure that we don't become IO bound in many cases. In addition, we don't need to tune the intermediate server as it will simply scale according to backend resource availability and IO throughput.

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'async-mysql'

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install async-mysql

Use the async_mysql adapter, as in adapter: async_mysql in your database configuration. This is a drop-in replacement for the MySQL adapter for ActiveRecord. But, it must be used with an async capable server like falcon.
