Shinguz: MySQL Enterprise Backup Incremental Cumulative and Differential Backup

Preparing the MySQL Enterprise Administrator Training I found that the MySQL Enterprise Backup Incremental Backup is not described very well. Thus I tried it out and wrote down this how-to:

Incremental Differential Backup

Full Backup

mysqlbackup --user=root --backup-dir=/tape/full backup-and-apply-log
grep end_lsn /tape/full/meta/backup_variables.txt
end_lsn=2583666


Incremental Backups

mysqlbackup --user=root --incremental-backup-dir=/tape/inc1 --start-lsn=2583666 --incremental backup
grep end_lsn /tape/inc1/meta/backup_variables.txt
end_lsn=2586138

mysqlbackup --user=root --incremental-backup-dir=/tape/inc2 --start-lsn=2586138 --incremental backup
grep end_lsn /tape/inc2/meta/backup_variables.txt
end_lsn=2589328

mysqlbackup --user=root --incremental-backup-dir=/tape/inc3 --start-lsn=2589328 --incremental backup
grep end_lsn …

Replicating into ElasticSearch

So here at Continuent we are working on multiple new targets for applying data using Tungsten Replicator. There are so many potential targets out there where people want to replicate data directly into a specific system, sometimes just for a specific data set, table, database or requirements.

Yesterday afternoon, I started working on ElasticSearch – this morning I have it finished!

As with all solutions, the same basic principles apply – want to pull out of MySQL or Oracle and into something else? That’s fine. Want to replicate to HDFS and ElasticSearch? We do that too!

So what does it look like?

Installation operates just our normal appliers – you just specify the datasource type (ElasticSearch) and the EL host name and port:

tools/tpm configure alpha \
--datasource-type=elasticsearch \
--install-directory=/opt/continuent \ …

How to Create an Index Based on an Expression, with Generated Columns

One of the many great new features included in MySQL 5.7 is the generated column. A generated column is a column in a table where the data is calculated for you, based on an expression that you provide.

To understand the benefits of using generated columns, let's consider a very simple example. Imagine that I want to find out how many new hires my organization had in the year 2000. Here's my table:

mysql> DESC employees; +------------+---------------+------+-----+---------+-------+ | Field | Type | Null | Key | Default | Extra | +------------+---------------+------+-----+---------+-------+ | emp_no | int(11) | NO | PRI | NULL | | | birth_date | date | NO | | NULL | | | first_name | varchar(14) | NO | | NULL | | | last_name | varchar(16) | NO | | NULL | | | gender | enum('M','F') | NO | | NULL | | | hire_date | date | NO | | NULL | | +------------+---------------+------+-----+---------+-------+ 6 rows in set (#.## sec)

MySQL Cluster 7.6: The First Milestone

The first Development Milestone Release (DMR) of MySQL Cluster 7.6--7.6.2--is now available! You can see the full changelog for 7.6.2 here. But before we get into the specifics on 7.6.2, I'd  like to take a minute just to paint the bigger picture of where we want to go with MySQL Cluster over the long term. While we cannot and will not discuss or project version numbers and/or dates for any given feature, it's helpful to know what our bigger goals and longer term roadmap are with MySQL Cluster (see the standard Oracle Safe Harbor disclaimer).

Long Term Goals 

We've set some pretty lofty goals for the …

MariaDB Handler_icp_% Counters: What They Are, and How To Use Them

In this post we’ll see how MariaDB’s Handler_icp_% counters status counters (Handler_icp_attempts and Handler_icp_matches) measure ICP-related work done by the server and storage engine layers, and how to see if our queries are getting any gains by using them.

These counters (as seen in SHOW STATUS output) are MariaDB-specific. In a later post, we will see how we can get this information in MySQL and Percona Server. This investigation spun off from comments in Michael’s post about the new MariaDB dashboard in PMM. Comments are very useful, so keep them coming!

We can start by checking the corresponding documentation pages:

MySQL Performance : 8.0-dev Progress Details

As promised, here is the follow up of the MySQL 8.0-dev Progress teaser ;-)
so, yes, we expect to see the most hot contentions gone, as it's seen from the following graph : Observations :

  • the graph is representing the spin waits / spin rounds events happening during the same Sysbench Update-NoKEY workload
  • the load is progressing from 8 concurrent users to 16, 32, .. 512
  • 3 engines are tested one after one : MySQL 5.7, MySQL 8.0 (current DMR), MySQL 8.0-dev (current prototype)
  • first all 3 engines are running on 22cores-HT only (1 CPU socket)
  • then, the second time : on 44cores-HT (2 CPU sockets)
  • and the most important thing to retain about this graph is that on 8.0-dev we see all main hot contentions gone ;-)
