Speaking at MySQL Connect

The MySQL Connect content catalog is published, and I’ll be leading a hands-on lab on MySQL Enterprise Features in Practice [HOL9787].  If you have wondered how to get the most out of the features of MySQL Enterprise subscriptions – whether you are an existing Enterprise customer or not – this lab is for you.  We’ll help you understand the benefits of the various components of the MySQL Enterprise subscription as you install, configure, demonstrate and use the …

Oracle OpenWorld 2013

I registered yesterday for Oracle OpenWorld 2013, and I’ll look forward to seeing friends there. Having worked in the Oracle 12c beta for a year, I’ll be interested in the presentations. Also, hearing more about Java 7 at JavaOne. On the downside, I’m missing MySQL Connect this year.

Cloud computing offers many possibilities, and container and pluggable databases are a great solution. We’ve two new acronyms with the Oracle 12c release. A containerized database is a CDB, and a pluggable database is a PDB. I’m looking forward to seeing more about the provisioning of PDBs during the conference. If you’re new to the changes, check out CDBs and PDBs in Chapter 17 in the …

The first day of JavaOne is already over!

In the past Sunday used to be a more relaxing day with ‘just’ some JavaOne activities going on. Sunday used to be a soft day to prepare yourself for an exhausting week. This is now over as JavaOne is expanding; Sunday is now an integral part of the conference. One of the side effect of this extra day is that some activities related to JavaOne and OpenWorld such as MySQL Connect are being push to start a day earlier on Saturday (can you spot the pattern here?).

On the GlassFish front, Sunday was a very busy day! It started at the Moscone Center with the annual GlassFish Community Event where the Java EE 7 and GF 4 roadmaps were presented and discussed. During the event, different GlassFish users such as ZeroTurnaround (the JRebel guys), Grupo RBS and …

Connector/J extension points – Load Balancing Strategies

A fourth and final Connector/J extension point I covered in my JavaOne and Silicon Valley Code Camp presentations is load-balancing strategies.  This exists in order to allow you to define behavior for balancing load across multiple back-end MySQL server instances.  MySQL Connector/J’s load-balancing implementation is a simple internal connection pool.  What appears to your application as a single Connection object can actually have multiple physical connections to MySQL servers underneath (one per configured host/port pair).  At specific points, Connector/J will re-balance and choose another host to interface with.  This extension point allows you to define how Connector/J determines …

Connector/J extension points – exception interceptors

A third built-in extension point for MySQL Connector/J is the ExceptionInterceptor interface.  This is the third extension point covered in my recent JavaOne and Silicon Valley Code Camp presentations, and is very useful for diagnosing specific Exceptions encountered without modifying application-side code. This corresponds to slide #60 in my slide deck, and there are two Java files we’ll reference from my demo code:

  • demo.connectorj.ExceptionInterceptorExample
  • demo.connectork.plugins.ExampleExceptionInterceptor

Java One 2010 Brazil Day 2 Trip Report - Pics & Slides

JavaOne Latin America 2010 (Day 1 and 0) started in an exciting way where I found a nice multi-instance cluster installation of GlassFish. More on that later but enjoyed meeting colleagues from different groups within Oracle.

I gave a presentation on "Whats New in Enterprise Java Beans 3.1" and the slides are available:

S314168 - What's New in Enterprise Java Bean Technology @ JavaOne Brazil 2010
The attendees seem to like simplified packaging (EJB-in-a-WAR and deployment descriptor-free), no-interface bean, cron-like syntax, and other features were well appreciated by the users. All other …

Oracle Open World / Java One 2010 Brazil Day 1 Trip Report

Oracle Open World 2010 Latin America was kick started this morning by Oracle's President Mark Hurd. Later Adam Messinger's (Vice President in Fusion Middleware group at Oracle) keynote started JavaOne Brazil and gave a status update on the Java platform. In his talk, Staffan showed a demo of JRockit Mission Control. TIM (a local Brazilian telecom company) showed how they are using Java to serve multi-million users in Brazil. Java FX super fast rendering capabilities were shown in a video. I showed how a multi-instance GlassFish 3.1 cluster can be easily created using web-based administration console. The steps to reproduce the demo are explained in the video below:
