In this post I’ll give to you the steps to compile Percona Server for MySQL 5.7.22 in Raspberry Pi 3. Why? Well because in general this little computer is cheap, has low power consumption, and is great to use as a test machine for developers.

By default Raspbian OS includes very few versions of MySQL to install

$ apt-cache search mysql | grep server
...
mariadb-server-10.0 - MariaDB database server binaries
mariadb-server-10.1 - MariaDB database server binaries
mariadb-server-core-10.0 - MariaDB database core server files
mariadb-server-core-10.1 - MariaDB database core server files
mysql-server - MySQL database server binaries and system database setup [transitional] (5.5)
...

If you want to install MySQL or MariaDB on an ARM architecture using official pre-built binaries, you are limited to those distributions and versions.

What is GTID and why do I need it? Directly from the MySQL documentation (excerpt taken as is with different jargons than used here, for master/slave we are using primary/replica):

A global transaction identifier (GTID) is a unique identifier created and associated with each transaction committed on the server of origin (the master). This identifier is unique not only to the server on which it originated, but is unique across all servers in a given replication topology.

GTID assignment distinguishes between client transactions, which are committed on the master, and replicated transactions, which are reproduced on a slave. When a client transaction is committed …

In MySQL NDB Cluster, the management node (ndb_mgmd) is a lightweight process that among other things handles the configuration of the cluster. Since it is lightweight. It can be tempting to install it with one of the other nodes. However, if you want a high-availability setup, you should never install it on the same host as a data node (ndbd or ndbmtd). If you do that, it can cause a total cluster outage where the cluster could otherwise have survived.

The first sign of trouble occurs when you start the management nodes. The following warning is printed to standard output:

2018-08-22 18:04:14 [MgmtSrvr] WARNING  -- at line 46: Cluster configuration warning: …

Data protection is one of the most significant aspects of administering a database. Depending on the organizational structure, whether you are a developer, sysadmin or DBA, if you are managing the production database, you must monitor data for unauthorized access and usage. The purpose of security monitoring is twofold. One, to identify unauthorised activity on the database. And two, to check if databases ´and their configurations on a company-wide basis are compliant with security policies and standards.

In this article, we will divide monitoring for security in two categories. One will be related to auditing of MySQL and MariaDB databases activities. The second category will be about monitoring your instances for potential security gaps.

Query and connection policy-based monitoring

Continuous auditing is an imperative task for monitoring your database environment. By auditing your database, you can achieve …
