Here's your weekly helping of developer info:
The sudden but inevitable Apple news
Several pieces of news on the Apple front this week. First up: the Gold Master seed (which either sounds like something you plant to get nice apples, or something out of a bad SF eugenics novel) for iOS 4.2 dropped, signaling the green light for iPad/iPhone/iPod developers to submit 4.2-ready applications to the App Store. Traditionally, the pre-release to developers is followed about a week later by the general release, and is identical.
Meanwhile, continuing to muddy the waters about what is and isn't allowed on the iPhone, Adobe gave a sneak peak of …

After four years working with the MySQL team, under three different companies, it's time for me to pursue a new career. Tomorrow is my last working day at Oracle. (Working? But it's Sunday! So, ehm, kind of, anyway, you got the point.) You may look at my personal blog in the coming days to know what I am going to do next. |
Right now, I would like to just say thank you to all my colleagues in the MySQL Team, and to all the community people with whom I have shared the wonderful experience of these four years.
And also, thanks to all the ones who have offered me a job. Really. There were many offers. I am sorry I could not …

I’d meant to finish writing this way back in July… but I failed at that. Now is a good time to talk about Rookie-O as my again new colleague Andrew Hutchings (Buy his and Sergei’s book on MySQL 5.1 Plugin Development!) just went through the same thing (but in London instead of Hong Kong) given by the same trainer (Hi Eddie!).
Rackspace is the second employer I’ve had that has some kind of new hire training (the first being Sun). I am, of course, not quite counting Salmiakki as new-hire training for MySQL (although I probably should). To quote from the …

Translation of appendix about methods of copying and moving MySQL databases just published. This is just short overview of possible methods and does not pretend to be detailed guide. It starts as:
Appendix. Methods of copying and moving of MySQL databases.
In this application I'd like to shortly discuss general methods
of backup and moving of mySQL databases.
Easier and recommended way of data moving is mysqldump utility.
You can copy data with help of following command:
$mysqldump dbname [tblname ...] >dump.sql

Welcome to Log Buffer. The weekly roundup of posts, and news of what’s happening in the database world.
At Pythian, we’re pretty much recovered from a hectic Oracle OpenWorld 2010, and I’m no longer an OOW virgin. What an experience! I had the pleasure of meeting many of you Log Buffer readers and contributors at the Annual Blogger’s Meetup at Jillian’s. Great to put faces to names. And I now officially feel like “Vanessa from Log Buffer”, as many of your t-shirts will show.
Many thanks to Marc Fielding for providing the hot items for this week’s post, in …

almost end, only appendix about backup techniques and epilogue

Summary.
In the last chapter we discussed methods of testing problems
which can happen only on production server. Lets repeat
them:
Method #25: if something unexpected happens check error log
first.
Method #26: turn InnoDB Monitor to on to have information about
all InnoDB transactions in the error log file.
Method #27: use slow query log to find all slow
queries.
Method #28: use MySQL Sandbox for fast and convenient testing of
your application using several versions of MySQL
server.
Method #29: use part of data when work with …
