Recently we published the first part of research comparing
Graviton (ARM) with AMD and Intel CPU on AWS. In the first
part, we selected general-purpose EC2 instances with the same
configurations (amount of vCPU). The main goal was to see
the trend and make a general comparison of CPU types on the AWS
platform only for MySQL. We didn’t set the goal to compare the
performance of different CPU types. Our expertise is in MySQL
performance tuning. We share research “as is” with all scripts,
and anyone interested could rerun and reproduce it.
All scripts, raw logs and additional plots are available on

Multi column indexes are a powerful way to speed up queries but they are often misunderstood. In most other databases an index on columns a, b, and c can only be used when searching on columns (a,b,& c), (a & b), and (a) -- according to the manual. Also that index supposedly can not be used to search for (b & c) or just (c). Well, that is the way I learned it and the way I have been teaching it. But I was wrong! Now would be a good time to read the MySQL manual on Multiple-Column Indexes as it does not work as noted (or see the excerpt below) and I assumed MySQL worked the same way as the other databases. Well, it doesn't!
Doubt me? Well, lets create table and add in some data.

[Read more]Recently, I saw many interest in understanding and getting information about database locking.
MySQL InnoDB’s locking can be complex and having an overview not always simple.
For more information about how InnoDB locking is working, I can only recommend this excellent series of articles by Kuba:
RDS(Relational Database Service) comes under “Database” services of AWS(Amazon Web Services) Cloud. In this article, we will see how to create an RDS MySql Instance, provision and terminate it.
MySQL InnoDB Cluster is the official High Availability solution for and from MySQL.
MySQL InnoDB Cluster is composed by MySQL Server, MySQL Group Replication, MySQL Router and MySQL Shell.
Before InnoDB Cluster there was no standard solution for MySQL Availability and many custom solutions were used (some better than the others). But there was a good solution using some similar principles of MySQL Group Replication: Galera.
Now that MySQL InnoDB Cluster is mature and easier to orchestrate than galera, I receive a lot of requests on how to migrate from Galera (or Percona XtraDB Cluster) to MySQL InnoDB Cluster.
I already wrote some time ago an article on this process: how to migrate from Galera to MySQL Group Replication.
In this article we will see how we can migrate from Percona XtraDB …
