Hi all,
Fosdem’s organization relocated the MySQL & Friends Devroom from H.1308 to H.1309 (Van Rijn).
It’s the same building, just the door next to it.
MySQL will also have a stand in the H building. Don’t hesitate to visit it (I’ve heard there will be some Sakila Dolphins !)

[Read more]This blog provides a query language type overview.
The idea for this blog originated from some customers asking me questions. When working in a particular field, you often a dedicated vocabulary that makes sense to your peers. It often includes phrases and abbreviations because it’s efficient. It’s no different in the database world. Much of this language might make sense to DBA’s, but it might sound like “voodoo” to people not used to it. The overview below covers the basic types of query languages inside SQL. I hope it clarifies what they mean, how they’re used and how you should interpret them.
DDL (Data Definition Language)
A database schema is a visualization of information. It contains the data structure separated by tables structures, views and anything that contains structure …

In this blog post, we’ll find out how to use Percona XtraBackup on a MySQL instance with a large number of tables.
As of Percona Xtrabackup 2.4.5, you are required to have enough open files to open every single InnoDB tablespace in the instance you’re trying to back up. So if you’re running innodb_file_per_table=1, and have a large number of tables, you’re very likely to see Percona XtraBackup fail with the following error message:
InnoDB: Operating system error number 24 in a file operation. InnoDB: Error number 24 means 'Too many open files' InnoDB: Some operating system error numbers are described at http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.7/en/operating-system-error-codes.html InnoDB: File ./sbtest/sbtest132841.ibd: 'open' returned OS error 124.
