Apache Zeppelin is a web-based notebook that enables data-driven,
 interactive data analytics, machine learning, and collaborative documents with SQL, Scala, Python, R.

Today we will see how we can deploy Apache Zeppelin on a Compute instance in Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) using MySQL Database Service (MDS).

You can manually deploy a compute instance and install zeppelin on it then connect to MySQL Database Service or you can use the Terraform modules I’m sharing on GitHub: https://github.com/lefred/oci-zeppelin-mds

Finally you can also deploy all this by just clicking on the follow button to use …

This post is the third and last of a series of articles dedicated to MySQL Database Service (MDS):

• Using MySQL Database Service in OCI – Part 1: creating a MySQL DB System
• Using MySQL Database Service in OCI – Part 2: importing Data to MySQL DB System
• Using MySQL Database Service in OCI – Part 3: faster with MySQL HeatWave !

The goal of this series if to get familiar with MDS, HeatWave and useful MySQL Shell utilities.

We can now start a query on our MDS instance that has been populated with >200M rows:

 SQL > SELECT year, Reporting_Airline,  
              AVG(ArrDelay) AS avgArrDelay …

Before we start, I would like to highlight that the fastest and recommended way to import data to a MySQL DB System in OCI is to use a parallel dump created using MySQL to Object Storage and load it …

The goal of this series if to get familiar with MDS, HeatWave and useful MySQL Shell utilities.

In this first article we will start by creating a MySQL DB System and a Compute instance in OCI. One of the goal is also to see the benefits of HeatWave, so we will start by creating this …

On December 2, Edward Screven, Oracle’s chief corporate architect revealed the Oracle MySQL Database Service with Analytics Engine known as HeatWave.

During Oracle Live on August 10th, 9AM PST, 12 noon ET / 1 PM BRT / 6 PM CEST, Edward Screven will share our latest MySQL innovations, along with the latest benchmarks, that show the speed and cost savings gained with MySQL HeatWave.

HeatWave, in-memory query accelerator for the Oracle MySQL Database Service, allows customers to run very fast analytics queries directly against their MySQL databases entirely avoiding the step of data ETL into a …

If you have (too) long running select queries it is probably because of lack of relevant indexes, problematic schema that lead to poor queries or inadequate hardware.

That said, sometime even if you doing it right, the query execution time could be too long regarding of what the application or your users expect. It is often true for reporting, real time analytics or BI queries.

At Oracle we have developed Heatwave, that allow you to easily run high performance analytics against your MySQL database.

To be more precise, Heatwave is a massively-scalable integrated analytics engine for MySQL Database Service (MDS), the MySQL DBaaS in Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI).

Some key points of Heatwave:

- Single MySQL database for OLTP & analytics applications
- All existing applications work without any changes
- Extreme performance:
+ 400x faster than MySQL, scales to thousands of cores …
