Today i want to share experience with latest Percona Server where TokuDB and TokuBakcup plugins have been added in main source.
So there is no other steps needed here to get and started.
But in recent discussion in our local community, there was a question: “How about installing MySQL on CentOS minimal”.
The reason was clear, because somebody got too many errors in fresh CentOS 7 minimal.

I want to share here full steps.
Please follow numbers:

1. Getting Source package:

[root@testing-host1 ~]# wget https://www.percona.com/downloads/Percona-Server-5.6/Percona-Server-5.6.27-75.0/source/tarball/percona-server-5.6.27-75.0.tar.gz

Unpacking:
tar -xvf percona-server-5.6.27-75.0.tar.gz

2. Compiling using CMAKE:

If you have read the documentation:

Codership is pleased to announce the release of Galera Cluster 5.5.46 and 5.6.27 with Galera Replication library 3.13, implementing wsrep API version 25.

Galera Cluster is now available as targeted packages and package repositories for a number of Linux distributions, including Ubuntu, Red Hat, Debian, Fedora, CentOS, OpenSUSE and SLES. Obtaining packages using a package repository removes the need to download individual files and facilitates the deployment and upgrade of Galera nodes.

This and future releases will be available from http://www.galeracluster.com, while previous releases remain available on LaunchPad. The source repositories and bug tracking are now on http://www.github.com/codership.

New features and notable changes in Galera Cluster and the Galera library:

• security fix for the LogJam issue. The key length used for creating Diffie-Hellman keys has been increased to 2,048 bits.
• a …

In this blog post, we are going to show you some examples of things that can go wrong in Galera - inexplicable node crashes, network splits, clusters that won’t restart and inconsistent data. We’ll take a look at the data stored in log files to diagnose the problems, and discuss how we can deal with these.

This builds upon the previous post, where we looked into log files produced by Galera (error log and innobackup.* logs). We discussed how regular, “normal” activity looks like - from initialization of Galera replication to Incremental State Transfer (IST) and State Snapshot Transfer (SST) processes, and the respective log entries. 

This is the seventeenth installment in the ‘Become a MySQL DBA’ blog series. Our previous posts in the DBA series include:

With MySQL, it is relatively easy to create “point in time” restores. All you need is recent(ish) backup and a bunch of saved binary logs. You can restore the backup you have, and when it is completed, you can use mysqlbinlog utility to apply your saved binary logs to the desired state of your database.

I have created a simple go application to make your life easier. You can find it on my GitHub page.

The app works as reading its config file for the MySQL server connection credentials, a local directory where the binary logs will be kept, and the will path of the mysqlbinlog utility.

1. It checks the binlogs on the remote server which able to streamed
2. Checks the local directory where the binlogs are kept, to check which logs are already there
3. The incomplete (file size differs local and on remote server) files will be …

Recently my colleague (by Percona) Yves Trudeau and colleague (by industry) Marco Tusa
published their materials on Amazon Aurora. Indeed, Amazon Aurora is a hot topic these days, and we have a stream of customer inquiries regarding this technology. I’ve decided to form my own opinion, and nothing is better than a personal, hands-on experience, which I am going to share.

The materials I will refer to:

ScaleDB 15.10 is out. Some users have downloaded it and tested it and we have received pretty positive feedback, but also some requests to have more info and help on how to start. I will try to condense here the basic steps to install and test ScaleDB ONE for the first time.
First of all, some terminology. We have two versions: ScaleDB ONE and ScaleDB Cluster. ScaleDB ONE is meant to be used on a single machine (ONE = One Node Edition), whether it is a VM, a cloud instance or a physical server, whilst ScaleDB Cluster is the full size, multi-node cluster that everybody expects to run for mission critical applications. This means that the typical use cases for ScaleDB ONE are testing and development, data marts and streaming data collection and analysis that are limited by a single server (although you can always replicate your data to another server using the standard MySQL Replication). ScaleDB Cluster instead, is highly …

We are very pleased to announce that the MySQL Connector/Net source code has been added to GitHub. All of our versions can be found at MySQL Connector/Net repository, under the umbrella of the MySQL organization. This repository will expose the source code of the latest generally available (GA) releases. Same versions that are available in the official MySQL download site.

There are no changes to the releases cycles or the channels that we use for publishing new versions of Connector/Net. The purpose of publishing on GitHub is providing our users a quicker way to get the source code of all our GA versions. The repository contains all history since 6.7 alpha version.

Summary from last blog:

• Tip: An alias for Get-CimInstance is GCim, for Select-Object it's Select and for Get-WmiObject is GWmi.
• There are Raw and Formatted counters. Watch out for formula converting Raw samples to Formatted values.

NAMESPACE organizationThe general organization of namespaces is as follows:
  Category (Class if you prefer)
    Counter(s)
      Instance(s)
Every Category has Counters but not all of the Counters have Instances. The full path to the desired value is called a __PATH:
