Database change tracking using MySQL EE Audit

Use MySQL Enterprise Audut plugin to track data changes on specific tables. Scripts and documentation on github: https://github.com/wwwted/Database-change-tracking Tracked data (audit logs) can then be inserted into reporting db using parser scripts. Limitations:

  • Changing tracking rules stopps all tracking for existing connections until the reconnect. This is a limitation in MySQL EE Audit filter handling.
  • No filtering for different users, easy to implement if needed in change_tracking.sql SP (START/STOP).
  • Only tracking INSERT/UPDATE/DELETE statements. Easy to modify if needed.

MySQL Keyring now speaks Hashicorp Vault

As an intro to his performance act, an “old school” entertainer Victor Borge once famously asked the audience: Do you care for piano music?, which was greeted by a crowd, only to be immediately followed by a self-ironic punch line – “Too bad.”

Complete Megalist: 25 Helpful Tools For Back-End Developers

 

The website or mobile app is the storefront for participating in the modern digital era. It’s your portal for inviting users to come and survey your products and services. Much attention focuses on front-end development; this is where the HMTL5, CSS, and JavaScript are coded to develop the landing page that everyone sees when they visit your site.

 

But the real magic happens on the backend. This is the ecosystem that really powers your website. One writer has articulated this point very nicely as follows:

 

The technology and programming that “power” a site—what your end user doesn’t see but what makes the site run—is called the back end. Consisting of the server, the database, and the server-side applications, it’s the behind-the-scenes functionality—the brain of a site. …

The Value of Database Support

In this post, I’ll discuss how database support is good for your enterprise.

Years ago when I worked for the MySQL Support organization at the original MySQL AB, we spoke about MySQL Support as insurance and focused on a value proposition similar to that of car insurance. You must purchase car insurance before the incident happens, or insurance won’t cover the damage. In fact, most places around the world require automobile insurance. Similarly, many organizations that leverage production-use technology have their own “insurance” by means of 24/7 support.

In my opinion, this is a very one-sided view that does not capture the full value (and ROI) that a database support contract with Percona provides. With a Percona support contract, you are assured that your database environment …

Keyring framework

Security these days is bigger than ever. This statement needs no proof. It seems like it is getting easier and easier to get access to ‘secure data’. As system grows it becomes really hard to secure all endpoints. This is why encrypting data is now the hot topic in the database world.…
