Mydbops continues with its commitment to the open source community comprising of Database Administrators. After the successful conduct of three meet-ups in the past, we are now stepping ahead on to the 4th edition of Mydbops Database meet-up.

First time, we are going to the new venue, thanks to the kind people of Zenefits Technologies India Pvt.Ltd., It is a real pleasure to be hosted by the like-minded organisation in the city of Bangalore, scheduled on Saturday, 3rd of August, 2019 at Zenefits Office.

In the past three editions, the focus was on the latest and hands-on topics by the selected speakers from the DBA World. This focus gets sharper this time as well. The topics for the 4 th Mydbops Database Meetup are:

InnoDB scalability improvements in MySQL 8.0 – Mr. Karthik P R, Founder / CEO of Mydbops, a MIT Masters …

Overview The Skinny

Part of the power of Tungsten Clustering for MySQL / MariaDB is its intelligent MySQL Proxy, known as the Tungsten Connector. Tungsten Connector has three main modes, and depending on the type of operations you are performing (such as if you need read-write splitting), we help you choose which mode is best.

The Question Recently, a customer asked us:

How can I tell which Tungsten Connector mode I am using: Bridge, Proxy/Direct or Proxy/SmartScale?

The Answer Connect and Observe

You may login through the Connector to tell the difference between Bridge mode and Proxy mode (either Direct or SmartScale):

In Proxy mode, you will see the -tungsten tag appended to the Server version string:

This post is part two of my series “Assessing MySQL Performance Amongst AWS Options”, taking a look at how current Amazon RDS services – Amazon Aurora and Amazon RDS for MySQL – compare with Percona Server with InnoDB and RocksDB engines on EC2 instances. This time around, I am reviewing the total cost of one test run for each database as well as seeing which databases are the most efficient.

First, a quick recap of the evaluation scenario:

The benchmark scripts

For these evaluations, we use the sysbench/tpcc LUA test with a scale factor of 500 warehouses/10 tables. This is the equivalent of 5000 warehouses of the official TPC-C …

SQL Injection Example | What Is SQL Injection is today’s topic. An SQL injection is a code injection technique that may lead to destroying your database. It is one of the most common web hacking techniques. It can also be defined as placement of malicious code in SQL statements from a web page input. Attackers can use the SQL Injection vulnerabilities to bypass the application security measures.

#What Is SQL Injection(S.I.)

SQL Injection (SQLi) is the type of injection attack that makes it possible to execute the malicious SQL statements. These statements control the database server behind a web application.

The SQL Injection vulnerability may affect any website or web application that uses the SQL database such as SQL Server, MySQL, Oracle, SQL Server, or others.

Cyber Criminals may use it to gain the unauthorized access to your sensitive data like customer information, personal data, trade …

I was recently faced with a real issue about completely exhausting the disk space on MySQL. This was a serious issue because of the continuous outages of the service, as the customer had to constantly restart the server and wait for the next outage.

What was happening? In this article, I’m going to explain it and propose solutions.

Implicit temporary tables

MySQL needs to create implicit temporary tables for solving some kinds of queries. The queries that require a sorting stage most of the time need to rely on a temporary table. For example, when you use GROUP BY, ORDER BY or DISTINCT.  Such queries are executed in two stages: the first is to gather the data and put them into a temporary table, the second is to execute the sorting on the temporary table.

A temporary table is also needed in case of some UNION statements evaluation, for …

With such a wide range of options available for running MySQL based servers in Amazon cloud environments, how do you choose? There’s no doubt it’s a challenge. In this two-part series of blog posts, we’ll try to draw a fair and informative comparison based on well-established benchmark scenarios – at scale.

In part one we will discuss the performance of the current Amazon RDS services – Amazon Aurora and Amazon RDS for MySQL – and compare it with the performance of Percona Server with InnoDB and RocksDB engines. And in part two we will go over costs and efficiencies to look for. All this information is necessarily number-heavy, but hopefully, you’ll enjoy the experiments!

Evaluation scenario The benchmark scripts

For these evaluations, we use the …
