What is the method to disable MySQL binlog?

There are two methods to disable MySQL’s binlog:

  1. Disable the binlog function in MySQL by modifying the configuration file. Locate the MySQL configuration file my.cnf (or my.ini), add a line “skip-log-bin” under [mysqld], save the file, and restart the MySQL service. This will effectively disable the binlog feature.
  2. To disable the binlog, execute the command SET GLOBAL expire_logs_days = 0; in the MySQL command line. This command sets the retention time of binlogs to 0, meaning all binlog files are immediately deleted, effectively turning off the binlog function.
