Data Comparison Methods Overview

Data comparison is a difficult and resource-intensive process. For convenience, this process can be divided into several steps.
First, you should compare tables from one database on one server with the database on the other server. You should choose columns for data comparison, and also choose a column that will be a comparison key.
The next step is to choose all data from these tables or some specified part of the data.
The third and the most important step is comparison of the two tables by the selected comparison key itself. During this process the status of each record is set to “only in source”, “only in target”, “different”, or “equal”.
The final steps of the data comparison process are including records to the synchronization and synchronization itself. During these steps records needed for synchronization are chosen, update script is created, and after that the script is executed.

SQLyog MySQL GUI 8.3 Has Been Released

Changes (as compared to 8.22) include:

Features:

Speaking at the O'Reilly MySQL Conference & Expo: "A look into a MySQL DBA's toolchest"


I'm happy to announce that my talk "Making MySQL administration a breeze - a look into a MySQL DBA's toolchest" has been accepted for this year's edition of the MySQL Conference & Expo in Santa Clara, which will take place on April 12-15, 2010. The session is currently scheduled for Wednesday 14th, 10:50 in Ballroom E.

My plan is to provide an overview over the most popular utilities and applications that a MySQL DBA should be aware of to make his life easier. The focus will be on Linux/Unix applications available under opensource licenses that ease tasks related to user administration, setting up and administering replication setups, performing backups and security audits.

Of course I will cover the usual …

Back to Firefox

After a good while (I can’t search my Twitter stream) on Chrome I’m switching back to Firefox as my primary browser, and actually uninstalled Chrome. Why? I was getting the “Oh snap” failure page all the time, even on Google’s own Youtube! The only support I was pointed to was this page, and when I followed the instructions there when I restarted Chrome everything was gone. The sentence “copy the relevant files from the “Backup User Data” folder to your new “User Data” folder.” is useless when you consider the folder has 50+ files to sort through and I wasn’t sure which one was causing my previous problems. So back to Firefox, and thanks to Xmarks all of my stuff is there. …

Speaking At The MySQL Users Conference

My proposal has been accepted, yay!

I'll be speaking on a topic that I feel passionate about: MySQL Server Diagnostics Beyond Monitoring. MySQL has limitations when it comes to monitoring and diagnosing as it has been widely documented in several blogs.

My goal is to share my experience from the last few years and, hopefully, learn from what others have done. If you have a pressing issue, feel free to comment on this blog and I'll do my best to include the case in my talk and/or post a reply if the time allows.

I will also be discussing my future plans on sarsql. I've been silent about this utility mostly because I've been implementing it actively at work. I'll post a road map shortly based on my latest experience.

I'm excited about meeting many old friends (and most now fellow MySQL alumni) …

MySQL Drizzle team joins Rackspace

Well, more defections from Oracle, it's clear where the wind is blowing. It's as if all the cool and interesting stuff is quickly shedding itself from Oracle.
Jay Pipes has a good blog post about the announcement and the history behind them ending up at Rackspace.

Interesting quote: "Rackspace is also heavily invested in Cassandra, and sees integration of Drizzle and Cassandra as being a key way to add value to its platforms and therefore for its customers".I look forward to seeing what that's about.

I also liked this from Jay:"I don't know whether Larry understands that cloud computing and infrastructure-as-a-service, platform-as-a-service, and database-as-a-service will eventually put his beloved Oracle cash cow in its place or not. …

Chris is speaking at the MySQL 2010 Conference

I'll be presenting two talks this year:

Faster Than Alter - Less Downtime

"This will be a informative talk about real world problem solving and the powerful yet sometimes overlooked LOAD DATA INFILE command. This talk is for MySQL DBAs who want to expand their
knowledge, improve performance and decrease customer facing downtime"

Get Your Replication On: Advanced Techniques, Tips and Tricks

Co-speaking with Sarah Sproehnle for this one! We have lots of interesting uses for replication and some best practices up our
sleeves. Warning: we won't be covering how to set up basic replication
- that's a prerequisite for this talk!

Hope to see you there!
