OurSQL Episode 60: Charming Data

This week we talk with Giuseppe Maxia (pronouncing his name correctly!) about new features in Tungsten replicator, and go over a lot of news.

News:
There was a lot of news this week! There were three really big announcements at Oracle OpenWorld that relate to the MySQL community:

Oracle released a NoSQL database. http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/database/nosqldb/overview/index.html
It’s an ACID-compliant key-value data store, with a Java API for put, delete and get operations and includes replication. The data partitioning and distribution is automatic and based on a hash function.

OurSQL Episode 54: Scaling MySQL

Percona Live MySQL Conference and Expo event page, and Baron's announcement of the conference.

Dates to keep in mind:
September 1st - call for speakers opens
November 1st - call for speakers closes
Tuesday April 10th - Thursday April 12th

This week we interview Doron Levari, CEO and co-founder of ScaleBase. ScaleBase transparently scales your database, so you can have many shards without having to code sharding in your application. The sharding is completely transparent to the application. This can be combined with regular replication to have automatic use of a standby if a shard's primary database fails.

OurSQL Episode 36: It's Not Our (De)fault! Part 1

Nick Pisarro, aka @highenergybeams, suggested we do a podcast about the MySQL defaults we recommend always having, as MySQL's pre-configured option files are not particularly helpful. So we have put together a 2-part podcast on the options that we change.

About the Configuration File
Location and precedence of configuration files for Windows, Unix and Mac OS X:
http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.5/en/option-files.html

Note: We use the term "directive" to refer to the groups of options that begin with [groupname]. Upon reading the manual page again, we realized that the term is actually "option group". (Sheeri takes complete blame for this -- "directive" is actually the term for what !includedir and !include are...)
