This Thursday (January 28, 17:00 UTC), we'll be resuming our MySQL University sessions with an Introduction to the
Drizzle Microkernel by Brian Aker. Brian is located on the US West coast, so the session will start a bit later – see the information in the list of upcoming sessions. Brian started the Drizzle project and is the mastermind behind Drizzle development.

I may sound like a broken record, but currently we have only three MySQL University sessions scheduled for this year. In 2009, we ran more than 25 sessions, and I'd surely like to get anywhere near that figure.
Anyone who has something technical to say about MySQL qualifies as a speaker. MySQL University sessions take place on Thursday afternoons European time, and normally have between 20 and 30 attendees, but quite a lot of people listen to the recordings when the live sessions' time isn't convenient for them. We're using Dimdim as our conferencing system, so the setup for speakers is very simple: Just grab a headset, start a Flash-enabled browser on either Windows, Mac OS X,

[Read more...]This Thursday (December 3rd, 16:00 UTC – note the different time), Bill Karwin will talk about Practical Full-Text Search in MySQL. He'll introduce and compare five different approaches of full-text search with MySQL, using built-in functionality as well as third-party tools. It's interesting to see how vastly performance can vary, depending on which tools you use for which purposes.

Here's from the abstract: Everybody needs sharding. Which is not easy to maintain. Being tied to the application layer, sharding is hard to export and to interact with. The Spider storage engine, a plugin for MySQL 5.1 and later, solves the problem in a transparent way. It is an extension of partitioning.

Thursday (November 19th, 14:00 UTC), Patrick Galbraith will present memcached Functions for MySQL (UDFs). This session is about a suite of functions available to use with MySQL that allow you to store, retrieve and delete data, as well as most of the functions and operations that are available with libmemcached, such as server connectivity to the client, server status, client behaviors, and more. You can combine the fetching of data from one or more tables with the fetching of data from memcached and be able to apply any SQL operations on that result set such as LIMIT, sorting and other conditional operations.

[Read more...]Yesterday's MySQL University session on Gearman for MySQL had a rough start. After I had assigned Giuseppe presenter status we found out that Dimdim (our conferencing system) now turns on video when it discovers a web cam on the presenter's computer. That's not a bad thing in general, but you can't turn it off, which *is* a bad thing when your network bandwidth is less than superior. As a consequence, Giuseppe's voice came over very choppy, and the presentation stopped altogether after a few minutes.
For that reason, we decided to restart the session from scratch. This time Giuseppe turned off his camera before becoming presenter, and the session worked flawlessly. For those of you who've given up because of bad sound quality, the recording is here, and it looks and sounds good. You can find it on the MySQL University session page:

Thursday (November 12th, 14:00 UTC), Giuseppe Maxia of the MySQL Community Team will present Gearman for MySQL. Gearman is a client/server infrastructure for generic tasks, usable on
distributed servers, with little worry about the details. No matter
what language you speak, Gearman can meet your needs in C, PHP, Perl,
Ruby, shell scripting, and several more. Gearman can also work in
conjunction with MySQL, either using UDFs, or simply through its basic
architecture. Giuseppe's talk will show examples of how to use Gearman for
remote installation and how to call a complicate data warehousing
function written in Perl from any other language, with no knowledge of
Perl at

This Thursday (November 5th, 10:00 UTC - note the different time for this session!), Arjen Lentz of Open Query will present the brand new GRAPH computation engine for MySQL.
From the abstract: Most of us have had to deal with hierarchies (trees) and graphs (such as friend-of-a-friend style problems), and have thus learn that this is -at best- a bit of a monster to do in an SQL/RDBMS. Until now. The GRAPH engine (GPLv2 licensed) is a MySQL storage engine allowing hierarchies and more complex graph structures to be handled in a relational fashion. In a nutshell, tree structures and friend-of-a-friend style searches can now be done using standard
