Thanks a lot for this post.

Unfortunately, i can’t find mysqlmonitoragent v2.3 anymore.

Do you know where i can find it?

Lately I saw many cases when users specified option

--base64-output=DECODE-ROWS

  to print out a statement representation of row events in MySQL binary logs just to get nothing. Reason for this is obvious: option

--base64-output=DECODE-ROWS

  does not convert row events into its string representation, this is job of option

--verbose

. But why users mix these two options so often? This blog post is result of my investigations.

There are already two great blog posts about printing row events on the Percona blog: “Debugging problems with row based replication” by Justin Swanhart and “ …

This post is likely gonna get less relevant when Magento 2 comes out, but I decided to put it out there any way. In my limited time working with Magento I’ve come across a couple scenario’s I wanted to touch on. Hope it’s helpful for anyone.

Let say a merchant wants a new Magento online store. Now, there are a couple scenario’s that are likely or less likely:

1. The previous store was built with Magento. Customers can easily be imported using the various tools available (Magmi, import/export, dataflow, etc.)
2. The previous store was built on a platform that stores passwords in plaintext - fortunately this is not very likely ;)
3. The previous store was built on a different platform, using different hashing algorithms.
4. The previous store was built on a different platform which happens to use the same hashing algorithm as Magento,
5. A combination of #3 and #4 (yes - I’ve seen it). …

Loading databases on virtual systems is not as straight forward as it should be. Last time the foundation for using Ansible was set down on our quest to be able to have fully functional database servers on virtual servers automatically. But that prompted a few of you to remind me that you do not always need Ansible.

Without Ansible
You can have Vagrant do the work. Modify the vagrant file to run a script to run a script when provisioned, such as
config.vm.provision :shell,path: "setup.sh"
and create the setup.sh shell script.

#!/bin/bash

# example setup script for LAMP stack on Vagant box
sudo apt-get -y update
sudo apt-get -y install apache2 php5 libapache2-mod-php5

For every online business, there are millions of transactions happening every second including crucial revenue bearing transactions. Therefore downtime, both planned and unplanned has a cost attached to it and results in lost revenue every second. As the technology improved to meet this demand, the importance of High Availability (HA) became the focus point.

The introduction of Galera Cluster for MySQL bought true Multimaster Cluster thanks to its synchronous replication. In this article, we’ll show how using MONyog in tandem with Galera provides a simple and best-in-class High Availability solution for MySQL users.

How to register a Galera Cluster Node in MONyog

1. Enter the Hostname, port and credentials in “MySQL settings”, test the connection and save it.
2. Enable “Galera” group from “Customize” > “Manage monitor groups”
3. In Monitors page, select the “Galera” group and …

After several iterations and a long period of community evaluation, I am happy to report I've released the newest, stable release of the MySQL Connector/Arduino. This library is designed to allow you to connect your Arduino via an Ethernet or WiFi shield to a MySQL database server running on your network (or the Internet!).

New Documentation! Best of all, I've written a reference manual that includes examples of how to use the connector in a variety of ways. Included in the document are advice on how to write your sketches, troubleshooting tips, and a long FAQ compiled from the many questions from my blogs.

Changes The only code change in this release is to fix a defect when using the connector with the latest versions of MySQL.

Downloading the Connector To download the connector library and the new reference manual, visit …

If you’ve wanted to see how well MySQL Fabric actually works and how easy it makes setting up replication and switching Masters & Slaves back and forth, with a sample use case of having the master stored in a USB stick, then feel free to have a look at:

The MySQL optimizer has a well known special system variable—optimizer_switch—which allows control of various optimizer modes such as index condition pushdown (ICP), batched key access, etc. One big disadvantage of using the optimizer_switch, however, is that changing its value is an extra step in the query execution.…
