Perl Lightning Talks on YouTube

Not sure who it was, but someone recorded all the Perl Lightning Talks at OSCON. Neat!

Vani's 5 minute version of her longer YUI CSS talk is a little hard to follow because she was crazy enough to do most of it as a live demo, so lookup the slides and listen to the youtube thing at the same time!

My mini-talk on qpsmtpd is also up (slides here). Woah - I speak fast. I'll excuse myself with a story about the 5 minute limit.

MySQL Camp II - Registrations Limited - Contact Me

A while ago I blogged about the next MySQL Camp happening in New York. Sadly, I have had some trouble getting the new web server going (problems on my end mostly). But, camp is definitely on, and I already have quite a few people confirmed. I went ahead and update the MySQLCamp.org website with some information about registering, but not that this website is changing very soon and you cannot edit the pages...

A quick rundown for those of you who don't know about MySQL Camp. The first camp was held last November in Mountain View, California, at Google Headquarters. Google graciously sponsored the event and we had ~250 people attend over three days. The sessions were both planned and spontaneous, and participants I think got quite a bit out of it. Perhaps most importantly, MySQL community members had a chance to meet each other in a relaxed, …

Some questions and answers from the sixth session

Q from Adrian: What is BI reporting? Is it reporting?
It stands for Business Inteligence which is a bit more than just reporting - also analysing the data

Q from Assaf: What's the max realistic number of nodes in my MySql cluster?
We mostly see up to 8 data nodes (remember that you add latency with more nodes). Regarding the SQL nodes we also see customers with more than 30 nodes

Q from Assaf: What is the difference between "data" and "SQL" nodes?
MySQL Server is the SQL node, the data nodes are the "HA-Storage Engine"

Q from Adrian: How can I config HA to execute a script during a failover? Is this is possible with V2? I want to check some constraints before the slave server takes over...
Yes, you can implement your own scripts which will be executed on failover

Q from Dave: Can you have …

Why MySQL says the server is not configured as a slave

Is MySQL giving you the error message "ERROR 1200 (HY000): The server is not configured as slave; fix in config file or with CHANGE MASTER TO" when you try to run START SLAVE? There are a few simple troubleshooting steps to take, but I always forget what to do. This article is to help me remember in the future!

MySQL Proxy learns R/W Splitting

The trunk version of the MySQL Proxy 0.6.0 just learnt about changing backends within running connection. It is now up to lua-script to decide which backend shall be used to send requests too.

We wrote a complete tutorial which covers everything from:

  • building and maintaining a connection pool with high and low water marks
  • transparent authentication (no extra auth against the proxy)
  • deciding on Query Level which backend to use

and implement a transparent read/write splitter which sends all non-transactional Queries to the slaves and the rest to the master.

As the splitting is in the hands of the lua-scripting level you can use the same to implement sharding or other rules to route traffic on statement level.

Connection Pooling

For R/W Splitting …

Working on making MySQL run better on new hardware means.... new

I remember buying a super computer for $1.5 million in 1997 that had
far less capacity then this machine.
