MySQL 8MySQL 8 is now available for testing. The list of features is impressive and I am sure many PHP developers will be interested in having a true data dictionary, invisible indexes, and more. Right now it is in a milestone release. I am still doing a lot of work with 5.7 and found a great way to have 8 around when I needed by using Docker. Follow the Docker install guide for your platform of choice and then run

docker run --name mysql8 -e MYSQL_ROOT_PASSWORD=hidave -d mysql:8.0

Checking to See if it Really Works

docker ps -a
CONTAINER ID        IMAGE               COMMAND                  CREATED              STATUS              PORTS               NAMES

Note that our instance of MySQL 8 has the container id of ae1824fc01b5. And odds are …

This blog post was motivated by an internal discussion about how to fully disable query cache in MySQL.

According to the manual, we should be able to disable “Query Cache” on the fly by changing

query_cache_type

 to 0, but as we will show this is not fully true. This blog will show you how to properly disable “query cache,” and how common practices might not be as good as we think.

Can we just disable it by changing variables, or does it requires a restart to avoid the global mutex? Let’s see how it works.

Some Query Cache context

The query cache stores the text of a “Select” statement together with the corresponding result that was sent to the client. If an identical statement is received later, the server retrieves the results …

Hi dear MySQL Community.
I have reported a bunch of bugs and wrote some articles, but today is a special for me
Because today I send my first PR for MySQL source code.

So I have logged a bug -> #76852 and now fixed it after year.
Okey, I know I am lazy.

Let’s reproduce the bug.
Simulating full disk condition is easy as:

mkdir /filesystems
dd if=/dev/zero of=/filesystems/tmp_fs bs=1024 count=0 seek=$[1024*10]
mkfs.ext4 /filesystems/tmp_fs
mkdir small_mounted_dir
mount -o loop /filesystems/tmp_fs /home/sh/small_mounted_dir/

Then obtain MySQL source and compile it with DEBUG. If you don’t know how to do it just refer to -> installing-mysql-from-source-cmake-issues

From now you can use MySQL Sandbox to …

This post discusses ways of fixing broken GTID replication.

This blog series is all about the daily stories we have in Managed Services, dealing with customers’ environments (mostly when we need to quickly restore a service level within the SLA time).

One of the issues we encounter daily is replication using the GTID protocol. While there are a lot of blogs written about this subject, I would like to just highlight GTID replication operations, and the way you can deal with broken replication.

Most of the time we face way more complex scenarios then the one I’m about to present as an example, but the main goal of this blog is to quickly highlight the tools that can be used to fix issues to resume replication.

After reading this blog, you might ask yourself “Now, we …

In this blog post, I am going to show you how can you use Orchestrator and ProxySQL together.

In my previous blog post, I showed how to use bash scripts and move virtual IPs with Orchestrator. As in that post, I assume you already have Orchestrator working. If not, you can find the installation steps here.

In the case of a failover, Orchestrator changes the MySQL topology and promotes a new master. But who lets the application know about this change? This is where ProxySQL helps us.

In a previous post, I explained the architecture and design for the transactional data dictionary in MySQL 8.0. In this post I intend to summarize the status of this work in the 8.0.0 Milestone Release.

Storing all dictionary information in InnoDB tables

The MySQL 8.0.0 now stores dictionary data in InnoDB tables. …
