Using Transportable Tablespaces with Partitioned Tables

Overview

In this post I will explain how to transfer a partitioned table using transportable tablespaces on MySQL 5.6. Note that the operation is not officially supported until MySQL 5.7, as the discard tablespace operation will fail if it is run against a partitioned table on MySQL 5.6.

The workaround is transferring each individual partition as if it was a standalone table. Continue reading to learn more about the detailed procedure.

Steps

1. Create the same table structure on the destination server:

[root@mysqlsandbox ~]# mysql
Welcome to the MySQL monitor.  Commands end with ; or \g.
Your MySQL connection id is 1

Creating PivotTables when importing MySQL data using MySQL for Excel

In a previous blog post (Importing related MySQL tables into an Excel Data Model using MySQL for Excel) we covered in detail how an Excel Data Model can be created containing tables and their relationships so the data can be analyzed in Excel via a PivotTable. In this blog post we are going to talk about one of the features included since MySQL for Excel 1.3.0 that allows you to create PivotTables for data imported from MySQL tables, views or stored procedures, or more importantly for the whole Excel Data Model if it is created.

Remember you can install the latest GA or maintenance version using the MySQL Installer or optionally you can download directly any GA or non-GA version from the MySQL Developer …

Multi dimensional cubes in MySQL through Gearman
