MySQL MiniConf at linux.conf.au 2007
This implies I’m coming to linux.conf.au 2007 in Sydney next January. What’s more is that during the MiniConfs, we’ve got one for MySQL. Its on January 15th, and we’ve just put out the call for participation/papers. You have about eight (8) days left to submit a paper. So submit your tales of deployment, conference presentations, and I believe we’re even willing to accept “hand’s on” hacking sessions (ala what happened at MySQL Camp).

Zmanda recovery manager for MySQL 1.1.2 is available from Zmanda downloads page. This release has been tested on Debian distribution and on MySQL server 4.0.24.

I want to acknowledge Thorsten Schifferdecker’s contribution to this release. He helped us by creating debian packages for earlier releases and provided good feedback on the product.

Lots of bugs have been fixed and this release has underwent more testing with different MySQL configurations.

Take a look at ZRM for MySQL wiki for changes, documentation, try it in your MySQL configuration and feel free to provide feedback on forums.

Pentaho metadata

Today Pentaho released the first milestone of “Pentaho metadata” as a new core utility to make the life of BI professionals yet a little bit easier.

As you can see in the screenshot of the Pentaho metadata editor above, we offer a solution that bridges the gap between the worlds of the relational databases and business information. Here are a few of the key points that differentiate Pentaho metadata from the competition:

  • Completely open
    • Released under an open source license (Mozilla Public License v1.0)
    • Persisting in the Common Warehouse Metamode, a recognised industry standard, potentially allowing for easier interoperability with 3rd party tools
