MySQL Table Maintainer is a new utility to help you run table maintenance commands (ANALYZE, CHECK, OPTIMIZE, REPAIR) on your MySQL tables. It's part of the MySQL toolkit.
I've just released updates to all the tools in the MySQL Toolkit. The biggest change I made to most packages is using DBD to read MySQL's option files, though some packages got more significant updates.
I have downloaded the source for the latest SolidDB engine for MySQL and modified it to compile on Mac OS X PPC operating system. There were no new changes in my modification process, so any differences are specific to the engine and will be bug fixes and new features.
Currently I am running the mysql-test set on the new engine and modifying some of the tests to formulate a test base for newer versions of the SolidDB engine as it is released.
I have made a precompiled binary available for version
v0064.

Over the last weeks I wrote a mysql-proxy which changes the way you operate with the MySQL Server.
A proxy can operate as Man in the Middle and pass through to network packets to the MySQL Server, but it also change the packets when needed. This opens the several possibilities like a
- pseudo server done
- injection proxy done
- load-balancing proxy done
- connection pool
- XA Transaction Manager
- replication client
- replication filter
- replication off-loader
Some of them are already implemented, some are only ideas for the future.
- http://forge.mysql.com/wiki/MySQL_Proxy has the source and the binaries
- …
The MySQL proxy got some final touches to make it ready for the first release:
- a command-line interface
- some more mode descriptions for the different modes of operation
You can choose between three modes for now:
- pseudo server
- injection proxy
* replication client
For the future we plan:
- connection pooling
* replication filtering and off-loading
The options so far:
$ mysql-proxy --help --listen-port=<port> port the pseudo mysql-server should listen on in server-mode (default: 4040) --server-port=<port> port of the remote mysql-server in proxy- and reverse-mode (default: 3306) --server-ip=<ip> ip-address of the remote mysql-server in proxy- and reverse-mode (default: 127.0.0.1) --replication-user=<user> user-account …[Read more]
MySQL Table Maintainer is a new utility to help you run table maintenance commands (ANALYZE, CHECK, OPTIMIZE, REPAIR) on your MySQL tables. It’s part of the MySQL toolkit. Overview This tool is designed to help you run maintenance commands on your MySQL tables. There is a MySQL-provided tool (myisamchk) that fills some of the same purposes, but there are important advantages to doing it with SQL commands instead. Unlike using myisamchk, you don’t have to ensure this tool has exclusive access to the tables!
I’ve just released updates to all the tools in the MySQL Toolkit. The biggest change I made to most packages is using DBD to read MySQL’s option files, though some packages got more significant updates. Overview I discovered some features I didn’t know the Perl MySQL driver had – features to read MySQL’s option files, mostly, though there are some other nice features I use occasionally (but which are very relevant to innotop).
Through Kristian Köhntopp’s blog, I ran into a funny posting about “The real difference between MySQL and PostgreSQL” on Andreas Scherbaum’s mostly PostgreSQL related blog. I’ve taken the liberty below post a cropped version of the central picture of that blog entry:
The picture shows Susanne Ebrecht and Lenz Grimmer at the Free and Open Source Software Developers’ European Meeting FOSDEM …
[Read more]We had about a 70% increase in applications for the Google Summer of Code, in the last 24-hours. This prompted me to post to the summer-discuss list, pimping some new projects. We’re rocking in getting external mentors, for projects that will benefit the community:
- I already pimped Sheeri a few days ago, and she’s got the MySQL Auditing Software up her sleeve
- We’ve also got …
