Last post from the MySQL Content Advent Calendar 2023 - Season's Greetings from the MySQL Community Team.

In this article we will see how we can deploy WordPress and MySQL on OKE in OCI using the MySQL Operator for Kubernetes.

I could have set MySQL between parenthesis in the title as this article is more about how to use OpenTofu to deploy on OCI.

I will explain how to install OpenTofu and how to use it to deploy on OCI. I will also mention what are the required changes be able to use my previous Terraform deployment files.

Since sorting your rows is not free, it can take a significant amount of resources and time to sort large data sets; thus, it’s important to do it cautiously. If you don’t need your rows in a certain order, don’t order them.

However, if you need to order your rows, doing it efficiently and effectively is essential to optimize your queries. You must understand how to use indexes to make sorting cheaper.
