The MySQL Community offers a great example of various forks and branches, with MariaDB being the most well-known fork, and companies like Percona, Facebook and Alibaba maintaining their own branches.

In this presentation we will look at the history of MySQL, the causes of MySQL forking and branching, and …

InnoDB depends on operating system threads to process the requests from user transactions, These transactions include requests to InnoDB before commit or rollback. The modern operating systems and servers with multi-core processors, where context switching is efficient, most workloads run well without any limit on the number of concurrent threads. InnoDB can efficiently control the number of concurrently executing operating system threads (and thus the number of requests that are processed at any one time) to minimize context switching between threads. if the number of threads concurrently executing is at a pre-defined limit, the new request sleeps for a short time before it tries again. The requests which cannot be rescheduled after the sleep is put in a first-in/first-out queue and eventually is processed. Threads waiting for locks are not counted in the number of concurrently executing threads.To limit the number of …

I published another article on the Percona Community Blog.  This time, it is about Semi-Synchronous Replication.  You can read the post here:

Question about Semi-Synchronous Replication: the Answer with all the Details

I previously wrote about my motivation to publish on the Percona Community Blog.  Things have not changed: I still believe it is a great community initiative that I want to

A note on configuration in 8.0 related to this (slightly off topic)

MySQL 8.0 provides the new persistent configuration settings, https://mysqlserverteam.com/mysql-8-0-persisting-configuration-variables/, which in theory is to enable us to simplify configuration by being able to do this from the SQL prompt (remotely) and then for settings which require a restart use the RESTART command, https://mysqlserverteam.com/mysql-8-0-persisting-configuration-variables/.

You do not mention this option here. Would it work?

I fear it may not be the case as I also bumped into an issue with dragnet logging, see: https://bugs.mysql.com/bug.php?id=90579.

It can be hard to recall all the details of how a program and API work. The usual way to handle that is to look at the manual or a book. Another – and in my opinion – nice way is to have built-in help, so you can find the information without changing between the program and browser. This blog discuss how to obtain help when you use MySQL Shell.

MySQL Shell is a client that allows you to execute queries and manage MySQL through SQL commands and JavaScript and Python code. It is a second generation command-line client with additional WebOps support. If you have not installed MySQL Shell yet, then you can download it from MySQL’s community downloads, Patches & Updates in …

Join Percona Chief Evangelist Colin Charles as he covers happenings, gives pointers and provides musings on the open source database community.

Grading is underway for talks at Percona Live Europe 2018. I understand that by next week you will see the tutorial schedule released. As part of the program committee, I have enjoyed reviewing tutorials, and I reckon there is great competition for the schedule. I suggest you register now, and don’t forget to book your accommodation (need a discount?).

A video worth watching: …

There are many organizations where front/web-facing applications use MySQL and back end processing uses PostgreSQL®. Any system integration between these applications generally involves the replication—or duplication—of data from system to system. We recently blogged about pg_chameleon which can be used replicate data from MySQL® to PostgreSQL. mysql_fdw can play a key role in eliminating the problem of replicating/duplicating data. In order to eliminate maintaining the same data physically in both postgres and MySQL, we can use mysql_fdw. This allows PostgreSQL to access MySQL tables and to use them as if they are local tables in PostgreSQL. mysql_fdw can be used, too, with …

We received feedback about how a member should act when leaving the group. And the majority of users wanted that when a node drops out of the group, it should kill all connections and shutdown. I totally agree with that behavior and it’s now the default in MySQL 8.0.12.

This new feature is explained in WL#11568.

Before this change, the server goes into super read only mode when dropping out of the group and allows users connected to this server or new connections (if you don’t use the router) to read old data.

Let’s check this out in the following video:

So now in MySQL 8.0.12, there is a mnew option called …
