Experimental Build of MyRocks with Percona Server for MySQL

We have been working on bringing out a build of MyRocks with Percona Server for MySQL.

MyRocks is a RocksDB-based storage engine. You can find more information about MyRocks here.

While there is still a lot of work to do, I want to share an experimental build of Percona Server for MySQL with MyRocks, which you can use to evaluate and test this engine

The tar.gz binaries are available from our …

The mysqlpump Utility

In this blog, we’ll look at the

mysqlpump

 utility.

mysqlpump

 is a utility that performs logical backups (which means backing up your data as SQL statements instead of a raw copy of data files). It was added in MySQL Server version 5.7.8, and can be used to dump a database or a set of databases to a file and then loaded on another SQL server (not necessarily a MySQL server).

Its usage is similar to

mysqldump

, but it includes a new set of features. Many of the options are the same, but it was written from scratch to avoid being limited to

mysqldump

 compatibility. The Main Features Include:

  • To make the dump process faster, it allows parallel processing of databases and objects within databases.

Run Percona Server on Bash on Windows on Ubuntu

In this post, I’ll explain how to run Percona Server for MySQL and Percona Server for MongoDB on Bash on Windows on Ubuntu.

We are getting a good number of questions about whether Percona Server (for both MySQL and MongoDB) is available for Windows for evaluation or development purposes. I want to provide a guide to how to get it running.

In comments to the post Running Percona XtraBackup on Windows … in Docker, Peter Laursen recommend Bash on Ubuntu on Windows. That hadn’t occurred to me before, so the credit goes to Peter Laursen.

As of that older post, it appears that Percona XtraBackup was not working right in Bash on Ubuntu on Windows. But in my latest test on Windows …

TokuDB Hotbackup is a solution that allows you to do backups on the fly. It works as a library that intercepts certain system calls that duplicate data written to already copied parts of files, so that at the end of the backup process the copied files contain the same content as the original files. There are several blog posts describing how TokuDB Hot Backup works in details:

MySQL Performance: 8.0-dev Progress..

As you already know, a new MySQL-8.0 milestone release is available (and hope you did not miss all the news coming from MySQL Server Team site - starting by what's new article and followed by many others (and you'll see yet more to come ;-))..

There are also many good changes improving overall MySQL 8.0 Performance. However to see a real boost on OLTP workloads you'll need to have little bit more of patience.. -- we're attacking InnoDB fundamentals.. -- the parts of design which are probably remained mostly unchanged since InnoDB creation ;-)) -- you can easily understand that such a work has a long road from idea/ prototype to a final release.. On the same time our "Preview" results are looking very encouraging, and I'll be happy to say you more about during my talk …
