Security is a foundational principle for cloud deployments, especially when dealing with mission-critical workloads like those managed by HeatWave MySQL. As applications and environments scale, fine-grained network control becomes critical not just for protecting sensitive data, but also for isolating systems, enforcing boundaries, and minimizing lateral movement within a Virtual Cloud Network (VCN).

I recently troubleshoot an interesting MySQL crash, and I think it is worth sharing (with the related bugs).  MySQL crashed when the disk was full, you can see the free disk graph below.  The Y-axis is in the tens of GiB scale and the X-axis is in the hour scale.  Can you guess what happened ?

Just to make sure we agree on the meaning of the graph above, let's describe it

What is Transparent Data Encryption in the context of Cloud Services? Transparent Data Encryption (TDE) in the cloud refers to the encryption of data at rest, meaning the data stored on the cloud infrastructure, without requiring any changes to the applications accessing it. In the case of databases it is a security feature that encrypts […]
