Improvements
We usually take care of things we value, whether it is an expensive smartphone or the company’s servers. Data is one of the most important assets of the organisation, and although we do not see it, it has to be carefully protected. We implement data at rest encryption to encrypt database files or whole volumes which contain our data. We implement data in transit encryption using SSL to make sure no one can sniff and collect data sent across networks. Backups are no different. No matter if this is a full backup or incremental, it will store at least a part of your data. As such, backups have to be encrypted too. In this blog post, we will look into some options you may have when it comes to encrypting backups. First though, let’s look at how you can encrypt your backups and what could be use cases for those methods.
How to encrypt your backup?
Encrypt local file
First of all, you can easily encrypt existing files. …

During our recent migration we migrated a part of a app to
different region with new db. Our previous setup was on MySQL
5.6.39 with single write master and multiple slave to read
data.
Current Setup:
But now Masters will be two one for old and second for new
migrated service. We moved new master on MySQL 5.7 with GTID, MTS
and Logical Clock based replication. So our use case was to read
whole data (written on master1 + master2) from slaves.
So now question is What we have done to achieve this?
Below is New Setup:

Today I read the nice post of Bhuvanesh on
the memory leak issue they experienced with MySQL. In fact when
you read the post, you realize that MySQL was just following the
parameters that were setup (the default of max_prepare_stmt_count is 16382
even on 5.6).
I’m still convinced that the problem should be resolved in the application even if the use of ProxySQL for multiplexing is great.
In MySQL 8.0, we have enabled the …

I am currently working my way through the many PHP Frameworks to
see how they get on with MySQL 8. The Frameworks that can
take advantage of the MySQL Improved Extension or mysqli
can take advantage of the SHA256 Caching Authentication method.
But those that are PDO based need to use the older MySQL Native
Authentication method.
I wanted to check the PDO based frameworks and today I just
happened to be wearing the very nice Symfony shirt I received as
part of my presentation at Symfony USA. So I started with a
fresh install of Symfony. All was going well until it came
time to get it to work with MySQL 8 through Doctrine.
Doctrine
Symfony uses Doctrine as an ORM (Object Relational Mapper)
and DBAL (Database Abstraction Layer) as an
intermediary to the database. While I myself am not a big
fan of ORMs …
