Speaking at Percona Live London 2012: Choosing Hardware for MySQL

Another Percona Live event is coming up, this time in London on the 3rd and 4th of December. I’m sure it is going to be as awesome as it was last year.

This year, I will talk about ‘Choosing Hardware For MySQL‘.

Of course, the most important hardware components will be covered: CPU, Memory, Network, Disk Subsystem and also the Cloud.
I will try to help attendees better understand how MySQL uses hardware (and how it does not), how it optimizes random IO operations on disk, what scalability means for MySQL, what it’s limitations are and so on…
Want more? Just attend!

Once again, a split in events

Percona Live London 2012 happens December 3-4 2012. Naturally Oracle has decided to back UKOUG in Birmingham with interesting talks as well, happening December 3-5 2012. This is akin to the recent San Francisco/New York split for MySQL Connect & Percona Live NYC 2012.

Lucky for us, Birmingham’s “MySQL day” seems to be December 5 2012, and by estimates, it takes about 1.5 hours for one to attend both events and see 3 days of MySQL related content.

That aside, I’m hoping this doesn’t happen in 2013. Splitting the community is never a good idea.

"When the Nerds Go Marching In"

Palomino was honored to serve as part of the team of technologists on President Obama's re-election campaign. Atlantic Magazine ran a fascinating piece about Narwhal, the sophisticated data architecture that enabled the campaign to track voters, volunteers and online trends.

Palomino CEO Laine Campbell joined the team in Chicago for the final days of the campaign, ensuring maximum uptime and performance on the MySQL databases. Afterwards, President Obama thanked her for Palomino's contributions.

This tutorial explains how to install the MySQL 5.6.8rc1 (Linux Generic) development release on an Ubuntu 12.10 server.

database musings (“deep thoughts”)

I have a soft spot for hierarchical databases.  My first database-related job was programming in M/Mumps.  I know the standard history of databases says that hierarchical databases are a relic of the past, and that, thanks to Codd, relational databases solve many of the problems of hierarchical (and other kinds of) databases.  I like relational databases – I was an Oracle DBA, I’ve worked with DB2, Sybase, Postgres, mSQL, others, and now MySQL.  I really like InnoDB.  However, I am occasionally sad that hierachical databases seem a thing of the past.
Or are they?  Yesterday I had a thought that hierarchical databases are much more widely used than relational databases.  In fact, maybe every single computer has a hierarchical database that is used by every computer user, whether they have database software installed or not.  The file system!  Isn’t that a hierarchical database?  The idea …

Covering or not covering, that is the question

I’m currently working on a new project about the explain command output.
For my research I’ve read a lot of documentations, presentations and blog posts and I would like to focus on the join type in the explain output.
And in particular when type=index in this explain output.

Take a look at what says the official documentation about type=index :

Wait a second, only the index tree is scanned? really?
This description seems to be the definition of a covering index.
But a covering index is only characterized by a “Using index” in the extra column of the explain output.

Consider the t1 table, just …
