I may be a lone dissenter when it comes to the Home screen. Having a modern look and be useful can be two different things. We have several servers and allot of projects. Give me a simple list. Will this be configurable so a user can make it suitable to ones likes and needs?

Today I performed a brew update. I noticed that MariaDB now exists as stable (5.5.30) and devel (10.0.2). Brew formulas also exist for MySQL (5.6.10) and Percona Server (5.5.30-30.2) now. 10.0.3 is around the corner but I wanted to run 10.0.2 now. This is how I did it:

brew unlink mariadb
brew install --devel mariadb

It’s that simple!

MySQL can be deployed in several ways, and that means you can choose a tailor-made path that best meets your needs. With simple services or development systems, many people are using a single server with some backups configured, and then simply take the downtime when a restore is needed.

As the application evolves, additional requirements will appear like hot backups, online schema changes, replication based high availability (which has …
