MySQL Enterprise Backup team is proud to announce the new release of MySQL Enterprise Backup (MEB) 3.10.0.

Security of backups and usability of backup tools form an important factor in taking successful backups. DBAs prefer to have tools that would help them in backup and restore without much overhead and also to help keep their backups protected. So in this release of MEB we have enhanced usability and added provision to take secured backups. In addition to this we have also provided enhancements to compressed backup.

There may be times when you need to create a new table in MySQL and feed it with data from another database, the Internet or from combined data sources. MS Excel is commonly used as the bridge between those data sources and a target MySQL database because of the simplicity it offers to organize the information to then just dump it into a new MySQL table. Although the last bit sounds trivial, it may actually be a cumbersome step, creating ODBC connections within Excel through Microsoft Query may not help since these are normally created to extract data from MySQL into Excel, not the opposite. What if you could do this in a few clicks from within Excel after making your data ready for export to a MySQL database?

With MySQL for Excel you can do this and this guide will teach you how easy it is.

We are proud to announce our first MySQL for Excel video is now available at the MySQL youtube channel.
