MySQL Plug-in 0.42 for Oracle Grid Control: First Beta Released

It has finally happened! The first public release of the MySQL plug-in for Oracle Enterprise Manager 10g Grid Control is out.

It’s been a while since I first started to work on this, first as part of the Grid Control Extensibility article that I wrote for IOUG SELECT Magazine in 2006 (thanks to John Kanagaraj for encouraging me to write it), and then later as part of a demo for my

At MySQL Conf&Expo in Santa Clara!

I finally made it yesterday in Santa Clara. My flight on Saturday got cancelled, so I missed the party on Sunday at Marten Mickos' place.. I really looked forward to that, well maybe next year!
Today, Monday, the first day, it started nicely with breakfast meeting lots of colleagues and getting registered. We got a small bag with some spa.. flyers, and stuff. The coffee is good. At least I'm awake.
Right now Jan Kneschke is talking about MySQL Proxy together with Giuseppe Maxia. It started with the command:
 mysql> make coffee;
Woohoo!!!

MySQL Community Dinner

Yesterday we started the conference early with MySQL Community Dinner which was quite a success with about 30-50 people showing up (hard to count as people come and go) even though it was conflicting with Silicon Valley MySQL Meetup and which at least prevented Jeremy and his team showing up.
UPDATE: What I was thinking… There the meetup is today, but still I did not see Jeremy on the party yesterday.

To my surprise Jonathan Schwartz (Sun CEO) and Rich Green (VP of Software - boss of Marten Mickos) showed up and showed up at exactly right time - when we were discussing how the bill should be handled for such event. Rich Green introduced himself with something like “We just bought the company for 1 Billion so we can …

UC Exams

It is finally exam time at the Users Conference. The Magnolia Room where the exams will be given is just past the escalators in the lobby area. Over 20,000 pieces of paper have go into the exams and two staplers were sacrificed in preparation for the six exam sessions. As you can see from the photo, we have plenty of seating just ready for you.

Actually I have been giving exams since Sunday to MySQL Employees who are going to be busy working during the normal exam time.

If you are at the UC, please be sure to stop by to say hello to Christi, Ricky, and me. And thank you for your support of MySql.

The Integration of Frameworks

The irony of it all doesn’t escape me at all. I remember sitting in a small meeting room with my former BioWare colleague Jeff Marvin a couple of years or more ago and we were having a heated debate. The BioWare web site framework was something that we had primarily written in house (many years before) and I was vehemently opposed to moving to an off-the-shelf web framework.

Jeff was arguing quite rightly about some of the many good points about Web Frameworks. I was arguing, quite rightly, some of the many bad points of Frameworks. And so, we came to a stalemate, mostly, and that was that.

Fast forward several years and now working at MySQL (now part of Sun Microsystems) I came into a team that had inherited a home-grown …
