Planets9s - Intro to Docker Swarm Mode, MySQL Query Tuning replay and more ...

Welcome to this week’s Planets9s, covering all the latest resources and technologies we create around automation and management of open source database infrastructures.

MySQL Query Tuning: Process & Tools - watch the replay

You can now watch the replay of this week’s webinar on MySQL Query Tuning: Process & Tools. Many thanks to everyone who participated. We looked at the query tuning process for MySQL from building, collecting, analysing, through to tuning and testing. And we discussed some of the main tools involved in this process, such as tcpdump and Pt-query-digest.

MySQL Query Tuning: Process & Tools - View the Replay & Slides

Many thanks to everyone who participated in this week’s first part of our webinar trilogy on MySQL Query Tuning. This time we looked at the process and tools to consider when tuning MySQL queries. It was an interactive session with interesting feedback and questions, some of which we’d like to share in this blog.

The majority of this week’s participants currently use MySQL 5.6 or 5.7 (54%), followed by Percona Server 5.6 or 5.7. It was nice to see that many of our participants are on the most recent versions of their databases of choice. As we discussed query tuning, we also found that 100% of participants use slow log to collect their slow queries as well as other tools, such as tcpdump or performance schema. And everyone seems to run full query reviews, whether it’d be monthly, quarterly or yearly …

You can view the detail of the polls we ran during the webinar below in this blog or by watching the replay.

HA with MySQL Group Replication and ProxySQL

After having played with MySQL Group Replication and HAProxy, it’s time to show you how easy it’s to setup MySQL HA with ProxySQL.

ProxySQL is a high performance open source proxy for MySQL. It has many features that invite you to discover on proxysql.com and on github.

If you remember, I wrote in my last post that it is recommended to use Group Replication with only one WRITER group member. As it is the preferred architecture, I will show you how to achieve this using ProxySQL. With ProxySQL, you don’t need to have two different interfaces to split reads and writes.

In fact, when you use ProxySQL, you have a much larger amount of options to route your queries. In production, the smart DBA, will identify …

Database Challenges and Innovations. Interview with Jim Starkey

“Isn’t it ironic that in 2016 a non-skilled user can find a web page from Google’s untold petabytes of data in millisecond time, but a highly trained SQL expert can’t do the same thing in a relational database one billionth the size?.–Jim Starkey.

I have interviewed Jim Starkey. A database legendJim’s career as an entrepreneur, architect, and innovator spans more than three decades of database history.

RVZ

Q1. In your opinion, what are the most significant advances in databases in the last few years?

Jim Starkey: I’d have to say the “atom programming model” where a database is layered on a substrate of peer-to-peer replicating distributed objects rather than disk files. The atom programming model enables scalability, redundancy, high availability, and distribution not available in traditional, disk-based database …

MySQL Sharding with ProxySQL

This article demonstrates how MySQL sharding with ProxySQL works.

Recently a colleague of mine asked me to provide a simple example on how ProxySQL performs sharding.

In response, I’m writing this short tutorial in the hope it will illustrate ProxySQL’s sharding functionalities, and help people out there better understand how to use it.

ProxySQL is a very powerful platform that allows us to manipulate and manage our connections and queries in a simple but effective way. This article shows you how.

Before starting let’s clarify some basic concepts.

  • ProxySQL organizes its internal set of servers in Host Groups (HG), and each HG can be associated with users and Query Rules (QR)
  • Each QR can be final (apply = 1) or = let ProxySQL continue to parse other QRs
  • A QR can be a rewrite action, be a simple match, have a specific target HG, or be generic
  • QRs are defined …

MySQL on Docker: Introduction to Docker Swarm Mode and Multi-Host Networking

In the previous blog post, we looked into Docker’s single-host networking for MySQL containers. This time, we are going to look into the basics of multi-host networking and Docker swarm mode, a built-in orchestration tool to manage containers across multiple hosts.

Docker Engine - Swarm Mode

Running MySQL containers on multiple hosts can get a bit more complex depending on the clustering technology you choose.

Before we try to run MySQL on containers + multi-host networking, we have to understand how the image works, how much resources to allocate (disk,memory,CPU), networking (the overlay network drivers - default, flannel, weave, etc) and fault tolerance (how is the container relocated, failed over and load balanced). Because all these will impact the overall operations, uptime and performance of the database. …
