Mysql Failovers Using Python

1. The document describes a Python script that automates MySQL database failovers between different server locations. 2. The script performs various commands like stopping replication, changing master servers, and starting replication to fail over a MySQL database from one primary server to a backup server in a different location. 3. The overall goals are to perform failovers within 1 hour of downtime and automate the process using the Python script for multiple MySQL master servers.
