Capabilities That Define Modern DB Architecture

ProxySQL is a protocol-aware engine that transforms how you manage database traffic, security and compliance, high availability, testing and migrations.

Traffic Management

Solving critical traffic management challenges and workflows.

Connection Multiplexing

Handle 100k+ client connections with just a few hundred backend connections.

Architectural Deep-Dive

Advanced Query Routing

Protocol-aware regex-based routing to primary, replicas, or shards.

Architectural Deep-Dive

Sharding

Route queries to the right shard by user, schema, or table — with no application changes.

Architectural Deep-Dive

Query Caching

Cache query results at the proxy layer to reduce database load, cut latency, and accelerate response times without application changes.

Architectural Deep-Dive

Incremental Rollout

Gradually shift traffic between backends using percentage-based load balancing — no application changes required.

Architectural Deep-Dive

Operations & HA

Solving critical operations & ha challenges and workflows.

Failover Detection

Continuously monitor backend health and reroute traffic automatically during failures.

Architectural Deep-Dive

Zero-Downtime Changes

Reconfigure routing, users, and backends at runtime — no restarts required.

Architectural Deep-Dive

Security & Compliance

Solving critical security & compliance challenges and workflows.

Database Firewall

Protect your database from SQL injection and runaway queries.

Architectural Deep-Dive

Intelligent Testing

Solving critical intelligent testing challenges and workflows.

Query Mirroring

Duplicate live traffic to secondary host groups for load analysis and performance testing without impacting production.
