The latest release of MySQL 8.0 introduces a new dynamic system variable @@innodb_buffer_pool_in_core_file which lets you omit the Buffer Pool’s memory content when generating a core file.

This change is an adaptation of a patch contributed by the Facebook team. We would like to thank and acknowledge this important and timely contribution by Facebook.…

EverSQL is a platform that intelligently tunes your SQL queries by providing query optimization recommendations, and feedback on missing indexes. This is the second post of our EverSQL series, if you missed our introductory post take a look there first and then come back to this article.

We’ll use the Stackoverflow data set again as we did in our first post.

Diving into query optimization

We’ll grab the worst performing query in the list from PMM and optimize it. This query builds a list of the top 50 most recent posts which have a score greater than two, and involves joining two large tables – posts and comments. The original runtime of that query is …

As we showed on the introduction post, in MySQL 8.0.14 Group Replication was once again improved. Now the developer can specify which is the consistency level of all group transactions or even of a single transaction.

Note that this is about consistency in terms of the global synchronization of transactions in the group.…

One of the new features in MySQL 8.0.14 is support for encrypting the binary logs. While encryption makes the data more secure (provided the key is secret of course), it can make life a bit more difficult in terms of how easy it is to do tasks such as point-in-time recoveries. This blog shows how you can use the binlog_decrypt.py Python script to decrypt the binary logs as long as you have the keyring that was used to encrypt it.

Introduction and Background

João Gramacho wrote a nice blog how you can use standard Linux programs to decrypt the binary logs. This inspired me to consider implementing …

                     At Mydbops we are exploring the latest MySQL technologies . Recently i was worked for one of our client the project. The requirement is setting up a three node InnoDB cluster with 3 node ProxySQL cluster .

MySQL 8.0.14 was released earlier in the week, and again we (Oracle) received several contributions that either made it into the release or at least inspired a feature or bug fix. This blog will go through the the changelog notes for these changes. Thank you for the contributions.

Two of the contributions are new features with patches submitted by Facebook, one by Daniel Black, and one of Facebook’s patches from 8.0.13 has updated:

• A new system variable, log_slow_extra, if enabled, causes the server to write additional fields to slow query log lines that provide information about slow …

The post Create Aurora Read Replica With AWS CLI/Lambda Python appeared first on SQLgossip.

Today I was working for a scaleable solution in Aurora. Im going to publish that blog post soon in Searce Blog. As a part of this solution, I want to create Aurora read replicas programmatically. So we have done the create aurora read replica with AWS CLI and Lambda with Python. If you refer the AWS Doc, they mentioned there is no separate module for creating Aurora Read replica in boto3 or cli. Instead we can use create-db-instance. Many people may confused with this term. This blog will help them to create aurora read replicas using AWS CLI and Lambda.
