Thanks to everyone who participated in this week’s webinar on ‘Become a MongoDB DBA’! Our colleague Art van Scheppingen presented from the perspective of a MySQL DBA who might be called to manage a MongoDB database, which included a live demo on how to carry out the relevant DBA tasks using ClusterControl.

The replay and the slides are now available online in case you missed Tuesday’s live session or simply would like to see it again in your own time.

This was the first session of our new webinar series: ‘How to Become a MongoDB DBA’ to answer the question: ‘what does a MongoDB DBA do’?

In this initial webinar, we went beyond …

The most recent release of MySQL Server — 5.7.12 — ships with the X Plugin, which opens up an entirely new area of functionality: In addition to the classical relational approach to data management using SQL, MySQL can now also be used as a schemaless document store, something which is commonly referred to as a NoSQL database. In order […]

In a recent presentation by Balazs Pocze from Gawker Media LLC made clear that there are many automation strategies for server management that would be worth packaging up into an extended solution like MariaDB Enterprise.

Automation is good because there are way less "ops people" than "dev people" at many companies. Man-hours are expensive, so you don't want to waste them on routine tasks. Automated tasks also mean that there is a lot less possibility to make mistakes. "Everybody needs automation," says Pocze.

Gawker still uses physical infrastructure, powered by Linux, though there is some migration to the cloud. Cobbler is their Linux installation server of choice, where the hosts are defined, and there is no manual DHCP or DNS management; this tool not only …

Starting with Vitess v2.0.0-beta.2, the VTGate V3 API can route complex single-shard queries (containing joins, subqueries, aggregation, sorting, and any combination thereof) as well as perform cross-shard joins. That means you no longer need to tell VTGate the keyspace ID that a query targets, as you did with the VTGate V2 API. The fact that keyspace IDs are now hidden from the application has enabled drop-in Vitess libraries for standard database interfaces like JDBC (written by Flipkart), PDO (written by Pixel Federation), PEP 249, and database/sql.

We are glad to announce the new release of dbForge Studio for MySQL, v7.1 that includes several new features.

In this blog post, we’ll discuss upgrading MySQL with Orchestrator.

I recently had a client, Life360, that wanted to upgrade from Percona Server 5.5 to Percona Server 5.6, and implement GTID in their high transaction environment. They had co-masters and multiple read slaves.

Orchestrator made this job much easier for us. My colleague, Tibi, recently posted about Orchestrator here and here.

Daniel from Life360 saw Orchestrator and was very interested. So here is how he setup Orchestrator in his own words:

We like our 9s at Severalnines, so here is our list of Top 9 Facts (in no particular order) that made the trip to Santa Clara worthwhile once again for this year’s Percona Live Conference. Thanks to the team at Percona and everyone else involved in keeping the Santa Clara tradition going by organising another great conference this year.

1. The conference opened its arms not only to the “traditional” MySQL community, but also put a focus on MongoDB users.

This year in particular, there was a real intent to provide a place to learn and mingle for those database users who deal with not only one datastore, but manage a mixed database environment. More and more users are called to operate in polyglot database landscapes and thus it was good to see this year’s conference provide a platform for that. Percona themselves of course now serve both the MySQL and MongoDB user community with their tools and offerings, and companies like …
