Avoiding a STOP SLAVE Crash with MTR in Percona Server older than 5.7.37-40

I am finalizing my Percona Live talk MySQL and Vitess (and Kubernetes) at HubSpot.  In this talk, I mentioned that I like that Percona is providing better MySQL with Percona Server.  This comes with a little inconvenience though: with improvements, sometimes comes regression.  This post is about such regression and a workaround I implemented some time ago (I should have shared it

Triggering Replication Lag for Testing a Script

I am currently working on a script to auto-enable parallel replication / multi-threaded replication (MTR) when there is replication lag.  For testing this script, I need to trigger replication lag that would disappear after enabling MTR.  I came-up with a simple solution for that, and I thought it could be useful to more people, so I am writing this blog post about it.  Read-on for

Follow-up on an Unprivileged User can Crash your MySQL Server

A year ago, I blogged about An Unprivileged User can Crash your MySQL Server.  At the time, I presented how to protect yourself against this problem without explaining how to generate a crash.  In this post, I am revisiting this vulnerability, not giving the exploit yet, but presenting the fix.  Also, because the default configuration of Group Replication in 5.7 is still vulnerable

Some bugs and spring pilgrimage to Percona Live Santa Clara 2018

I am now in an airport, waiting for one of the four flights that will bring me to Percona Live Santa Clara 2018.  This is a good time to write some details about my tutorial on parallel replication.  But before talking about Percona Live, I will share thoughts on MySQL/MariaDB bugs that caught my attention in the last weeks/months (Valeriy: you clearly have an influence on me).

Next week in Brussels: Parallel Replication at the MySQL Pre-FOSDEM Day

FOSDEM is next weekend and I am talking about Parallel Replication on Friday, February 2nd at the MySQL Pre-FOSDEM Day (there might be tickets left in case of cancellation, attendance is free of charge).  During this talk, I will show benchmark results of MySQL 8.0 parallel replication on Booking.com real production environments.  I thought I could share a few things before the talk so here it

Write Set in MySQL 5.7: Group Replication

In my previous post, I write that Write Set is not only in MySQL 8.0 but also in MySQL 5.7 though a little hidden.  In this post, I describe Write Set in 5.7 and this will bring us in the inner-working of Group Replication.  I am also using this opportunity to explain and show why members of a group can replicate faster than a standard slave.  We will also see the impacts, on Group Replication,

An update on Write Set (parallel replication) bug fix in MySQL 8.0

In my MySQL Parallel Replication session at Percona Live Santa Clara 2017, I talked about a bug in Write Set tracking for parallel replication (Bug#86078).  At the time, I did not fully understand what was going wrong but since then, we (Engineers at Oracle and me) understood what happened and the bug is supposed to be fixed in MySQL 8.0.4.  This journey thought me interesting MySQL behavior and

My two parallel replication talks at Percona Live Santa Clara 2017

Yes, another post about my talks at Percona Live Santa Clara: I obviously still have things to share.  This time, I will focus on my parallel replication talks by giving a short preview.

I have two parallel replication talks at Percona Live:

MySQL/MariaDB Parallel Replication: inventory, use cases and limitations (Wednesday talk) MySQL Parallel Replication: all the 5.7 (and some of the 8.0)

My talks at Percona Live Santa Clara 2017

In a previous post, I listed all the Booking.com talks at Percona Live.  In this post, I will give more details about my talks.

As a reminder, the list of my talks is the following:

Monitoring Booking.com without looking at MySQL (Thursday keynote) The two little bugs that almost brought down Booking.com (Tuesday Lightning Talk) MySQL/MariaDB Parallel Replication: inventory, use cases and

Booking.com talks at Percona Live Santa Clara 2017

In a week, me and some Booking.com colleagues will be in Santa Clara for Percona Live.

Booking.com is sponsoring the conference and we will be present at the Monday Evening Reception.  You do not need a tutorial pass to attend the dinner (even if it is on the tutorial day): any valid pass will do.  If you do not have your ticket yet, it is time to register (you can use the discount code “
