This is something I do with replication.
You can replicate a list of tables, see the 'replicate_do_table' config
option.
Then you can euse the 'read_only' option. Replication still works but
nothing else. But it would give you more options by using GRANT instead
of 'read-only':
CREATE USER dmz@'%' IDENTIFIED BY ...;
GRANT SELECT ON *.* TO dmz@'%';
Then you can have a 'dba' user which can still work on the database:
CREATE USER dba@'%' IDENTIFIED BY ...;
GRANT ALL ON *.* TO dba@'%';
