This is one close to my heart. I’ve recently written on other storage engines: Where are they now: MySQL Storage Engines, The MERGE storage engine: not dead, just resting…. or forgotten and The MEMORY storage engine. Today, it’s the turn of MySQL Cluster.

The idea for this talk was proposed by my co-presenter Massimo Brignoli and goes back to a debate on this topic that went through the MySQL blogosphere during last Autumn - which in itself was sparked by an outstanding retrospective published about a MySQL failure at Github.

It's time again to award persons, applications and companies in the MySQL Community. This is an annual tradition to highlight and give appreciation to some of the things that make MySQL so great.
The first awards were given out in 2005, and since 2010 the winners have been chosen by a community panel of which myself and Shlomi Noach are the co-secretaries. There has been a public nomination period in January and the final voting is done by a panel who are themselves former winners of the award.

- allows end-to-end JavaScript development, from the browser to the server and now to the world's most popular open source database
- native "NoSQL" access to the storage layer without going first through SQL transformations and parsing.
Node.js is a complete web platform built around JavaScript designed to deliver millions of client connections on commodity hardware. With the MySQL NoSQL Connector for JavaScript, Node.js users can easily add data access and persistence to their web, cloud, social and

Deploying a well configured cluster has just got a lot easier!

Foreign Key constraints between tables
The newly announced second MySQL Cluster 7.3 Development Milestone Release (7.3.1 m2) builds upon first DMR (7.3.0 m1) released last year which added Foreign Keys to MySQL Cluster.

While this functionality is not yet Generally Available (i.e. you shouldn’t deploy your application on it yet) you can can try it out by downloading the binaries from

The Free and Open source Software Developers’ European Meeting (FOSDEM) is a two-day event organized by volunteers to promote the widespread use of Free and Open Source software.I attended for the first time over the weekend and was really impressed by the number of people there, the energy and the quality of the content. The event really lives up to it’s name and is very developer-focused.
In the end, I got the opportunity to make 2 presentations. The first is a general introduction to MySQL Cluster….
The second illustrates how you can realise the benefits promised by NoSQL data stores wihtout losing the consistency and flexibility of relational databases…
