Beginning with MySQL 5.1.6, it is possible to store the non-indexed
columns of NDB tables on disk, rather than in RAM
as with previous versions of MySQL Cluster.
As part of implementing Cluster Disk Data work, a number of improvements were made in MySQL Cluster for the efficient handling of very large amounts (terabytes) of data during node recovery and restart. These include a “no-steal” algorithm for synchronising a starting node with very large data sets. For more information, see the paper Recovery Principles of MySQL Cluster 5.1, by MySQL Cluster developers Mikael Ronström and Jonas Oreland.
