MySQL Sessions @ Oracle OpenWorld

Oracle OpenWorld can be pretty intimidating. Besides the extra fifty thousand bodies in an around Moscone Center in San Francisco, there is an overload of amazing information that bombards you from all directions. And then comes the really hard decision of which sessions to attend. This year MySQL has three rooms being used for sessions.

The Catalog of sessions shows over 1800 session and MySQL is the subject of fifty three of those. The problem is that you can not be in three places at once!

For example on Monday morning there are two tutorials and a great session at the same time.

  • MySQL Essentials—Getting Started with MySQL [TUT2356]
    Ligaya Isler-turmelle, Principle Technical Support Engineer, Oracle
    Jeremy Smyth, Course/Curriculum Developer, Oracle

On Friday, MySQL is sponsoring breakfast and Ligaya Turmelle is presenting MySQL Server Performance Tuning. On Saturday I am also presenting on MySQL’s NoSQL Interface — Best of Both Worlds.

If you are in Orlando for the show, drop by Booth 202 and say hello.

MySQL Fabric a big hit at Texas Linuxfest

MySQL was proud to return as a sponsor of the Texas Linuxfest last weekend. Over 700 tickets sold and I probably talked to all bu two or three. Luckily I had help from Quality Assurance Guru Jeb Miller and Software Release Manager Hema Sridharan as things got very busy. The crowd was really supportive of us, MySQL, and extremely friendly.

MySQL Fabric was a popular topic of discussion. Evidently playing ‘who has the virtual IP address’ is a big problem for DevOps staffs and Fabric solves that issue. Many in attendance were on the verge of needing to shard their data and liked having a tool to manage the work for them.

And Workbench 6.1 is extremely popular. Me, “Have you seen the latest MySQL Workbench in action?” Attendee, “Yes, I use it all the time and ti has really become awesome in the last year!” Many non-DBAs who have to look after MySQL instances love the admin tools over fat finger on the command line.
