Description

The accelerated logs feature is now enabled by default for all new Azure Database for MySQL – Flexible Server deployments. This feature boosts server performance and maximizes database efficiency. You can also enable it on all existing Business-Critical servers—including those using customer-managed keys (CMKs) for data encryption—providing improved performance and reliability across a wide range of workloads. 
 
The accelerated logs feature enhances a server's throughput, reduces commit latency for workloads, and supports high-concurrency applications seamlessly. With this feature enabled by default, new servers are automatically optimized for better performance without additional configuration. Furthermore, this enhancement is available at no additional cost in the Business-Critical service tier, ensuring maximum performance and reliability for mission-critical workloads.
