Well finally the last few weeks are over and we have Release 1.1 of Citrus Replay out of the door.
This release of Citrus Replay adds interactive Business Rules to support Data Understanding, Data Quality and ad hoc Data Analysis.
The new interactive business rules provide:
I've been working on a side project using Google Web
Toolkit (GWT), and I'm using CouchDB as the
backend store.
There is a project called couchapp
which makes it very easy to write an HTML/Javascript-only
application (you know, the new cewl way to build apps), and store
it directly in CouchDB.
Huh? What are the benefits of doing this?
Well, offline support is the big one for me. If I install a
CouchDB instance on my local machine, and then set up
replication, my app and its data can automatically be
replicated to my local CouchDB. I lose my connection, that's
fine, everything I need is there. I get back online, my changes
are automatically replicated back to my CouchDB in the
cloud.

[Read more]Changes (as compared to 3.73) include the bug fixes:
* Log analysis could use high CPU if the option to replace
literals with a placeholder was not selected and the literal
string ‘ “‘ (space + doublequote) occured in the log file.
* CSV-export from Query Analyzer only exported 200 rows (the same
number as displayed in the browser view). Now CSV-export will
export all rows. Also the UI makes it now clear that the browser
displays the 200 uppermost rows according to current sort
criteria.
* An error message regarding an integer overflow could occur in
Monitor/Advisors page for some values. The SQLite datatype used
could be too short for some specific data.
* Login to MONyog could fail if MONyog was running behind a
proxy.

This Command installs the Rpm package on the linux machine.
You can use the following rpm commands to check the package details and location.
Finally, HeidiSQL has an editor for scheduled events, available
since MySQL 5.1 . First ideas were implemented and committed
yesterday. Thanks to all user comments and votes on issue #1527. This is a great feature for all users
which normally think of creating a cron job to clean up some
tables. See it in action by updating to the latest build (see
"Help" > "Check for updates"). This is how it looks
like:
At this year's User Conference I have some interesting results to
present. But more than anything else, my talk will explain how
you can really get the most out of the engine. The design of PBXT
makes it flexible, but this provides a lot of options. What tools
are available to help you make the right decisions? I will
explain.
Every design has trade-offs. How does this work out in practice
for PBXT? And how can you take advantage of the strengths of the
storage engine? I will explain in:

Don't miss it! :)
Back in October I wrote about a student group I was sponsoring to create a new command line tool for Drizzle. The group wrapped up their part of the project (the term ended), and we now have a new tool called Boots! A few of the developers are still active in the project, and I’m planning to get involved more as well. We also have a couple students interested in hacking on it for Drizzle’s Google Summer of Code.
Boots is written in Python and aims to replace the the previous ‘drizzle’ tool (which was modified from the ‘mysql’ command line tool). It doesn’t support everything that the old tool has yet (like tab completion), but it adds some new features. For example, there are multiple ‘lingos’, or modular languages, that can be used to communicate with the …

At the upcoming MySQL UC, I have a BoF on Tuesday at 7 PM on the
history of databases. One things that would be
interesting to discuss there is NoSQL. Is this the next great
wave? If you have read my Blog before, you know that I think this
is not the case, although I do see the need and use for NoSQL
technologies. But my main argument against it is that sacrificing
functionality and general purposeness (if that is a word), is not
how progress works. Performance increases in general, without the
need to compromise functionality. But I may be wrong, it has
happened before (at least I think I have been wrong before, but
I'm not really sure).
But in addition to this, I'd like a general debate on database
history. SQL has been around for a long time, but there are other
technologies out there, most of them still around in some shape
or form, at least on …
If you are coming to the MySQL User Conference, you might want to
pop by the Computer History Muesum. The CHM is in Mountain
View, jus off the 101. If you have a car, just take the 101 and
get off at Shoreline, it's just on the east side of the 101. If
you don't have a car, you can get there anyway, from the UC take
the light railway to Mountain View and then you can walk (some 20
minutes or so, not the nicest of walks, across the 101, but it's
possible, I've done it) or take a bus from Mountain View.
At the CMH, among other cool things, is Babbage's Difference Engine in working order, a
mechanical computer. That Babbagewas a smart dude is obvious from
the fact that he never finished building the machine, although he
designed it, and when now built using his original designs, it
actually worked! I mean, …
