MyISAM is one of the most popular storage engines in MySQL. MyISAM frequently is the second choice after InnoDB - in this blog post we will try to find out how best to work with this engine.

What is MyISAM?

MyISAM is one of MySQL’s storage engines. MyISAM is based on ISAM (Indexed Sequential Access Method), an indexing algorithm developed by IBM that allows retrieving information from large sets of data in a fast way. However, it does not do very well when simultaneously reading from and writing to one table, due to its table locking. It also does not support transactions.

For some MySQL engineers, this engine is the most popular choice after InnoDB: the …

The “SHOW PROCESSLIST” command is very famous and very useful for MySQL DBAs. It will help you to understand the ongoing thread activities and their current states. By default, the “show processlist” output details will be collected from the thread manager, and it needs the global mutex. From MySQL 8.0.22, we have an alternative way to get the process details from the PERFORMANCE_SCHEMA. It doesn’t need the global mutex. 🙂

Note: We also have the non-blocking SYS schema views “processlist” and “x$processlist”, which provide more complete information than the SHOW PROCESSLIST statement and the INFORMATION_SCHEMA.PROCESSLIST and PERFORMANCE_SCHEMA.PROCESSLIST. But, we can’t integrate this with the “SHOW PROCESSLIST” command.

In this blog, I am going to explain the complete details about the new processlist implementation using PERFORMANCE_SCHEMA.

MySQL Select and Sort Status Variables This page is a reboot of the original written 15 years ago in 2005. Back then, I must have been using MySQL 4.1 or 5.0. Today, I am using MySQL 8.0.22. A lot changed in MySQL from 4.1 to 8.0, but it still has the same Select_% and Sort_% status variables which are equally important today in 2021. Let’s examine them in greater detail and with better examples.

Database monitoring is a critical part of any application’s maintenance. Finding database issues on time can help the application remain healthy and accessible. Without monitoring in place, database outages can be prolonged, resulting in increased downtime for users. In this blog we are going to explain what you need to monitor in a Moodle Database, and how you can do it using ClusterControl.

ClusterControl Monitoring 

Using ClusterControl you can monitor the databases efficiently, it can do so by deploying agents on the database hosts or in an agentless fashion, by simply connecting to the databases via SSH . Data is presented in a GUI, in the form of a number of dashboards and charts.
