MariaDB's RETURNING feature.

There is a new feature in the MariaDB 10 Beta which caught my eye: support for returning a result set on delete.

With a 'regular' DELETE operation you only get to know the number of affected rows. To get more info or actions you have to use a trigger or a foreign key. Anoter posibility is doing a SELECT and then a DELETE and with the correct transaction isolation a transactional support this will work.

With the support for the RETURNING keyword this has become easier to do and it will probably bennefit performance and save you a few roundtrips and a few lines of code.

There is already support for RETURNING in PostgreSQL. And PostgreSQL has an other nifty feature for which RETURNING really helps: CTE or common table expressions or the WITH keyword. I really hope to see CTE support in MySQL or MariaDB some day.

MySQL 5.6 DBA Beta Exam IS TOUGH!

I have just finished the MySQL 5.6 DBA Certification Exam Beta and my best advice is to study, study, study. The exam is in beta which means three things. The first is the exam is three hours long and it took me all that time to finish. Normally I am very fast test taker which has helped me earn three college degrees and enough computer related certifications to wallpaper a decent sized house. So if you are a slow reader, suck down a gallon of high octane coffee before your test appointment.

Secondly consider that some of the question will need to be cut out or reworked as the exam becomes production to fit the normal two hour test window Pearson View prefers. But in the beta period you over test and cut out the questions that prove less than satisfactory. So if you see a questions that triggers the ‘where the heck did they find that?’ reflex, you can hope that it gets determined to be a question to be relegated.
