We have reached the end of our series on deploying to OCI using the Hackathon Starter Kit. For this last article, we will see how to deploy an application using Helidon (Java), the MySQL REST Service, and OCI GenAI with Lanchain4J. We use Helidon because it’s a cool, open-source framework developed by Oracle. It’s lightweight […]

The starter kit deploys a MySQL HeatWave DB System on OCI and enables the MySQL REST Service automatically: The REST Service enables us to provide access to data without requiring SQL. It also provides access to some Gen AI functionalities available in MySQL HeatWave. Adding data to MRS using Visual Studio Code To be able […]

In part 4 of our series on the OCI Hackathon Starter Kit, we saw how to connect to the deployed MySQL HeatWave instance from our clients (MySQL Shell, MySQL Shell for VS Code, and Cloud Shell). In this post, we will see how to connect from an application using a connector. We will cover connections […]

Let’s now see how we can connect to our MySQL HeatWave DB System, which was deployed with the OCI Hackathon Starter Kit in part 1. We have multiple possibilities to connect to the DB System, and we will use three of them: MySQL Shell in the command line MySQL Shell is already installed on the […]

When we run databases in Kubernetes, we quickly learn one important truth: things will fail, and we need to be prepared for this. Pods are ephemeral; nodes can come and go, storage is abstracted behind PersistentVolumes and can be either local to a node or backed by network storage, and Kubernetes moves workloads as needed […]

The Percona Cloud Native team is happy to announce the general availability of the Percona Operator for MySQL, based on Percona Server for MySQL. This release introduces an additional Kubernetes-native approach to deploying and managing MySQL clusters with synchronous Group Replication, delivering the consistency required for organizations with business continuity needs. With this release, Percona […]

If you want to create a new application, test it, and deploy it on the cloud, Oracle Cloud Infrastructure provides an always-free tier for compute instances and MySQL HeatWave instances (and more). If you are a developer, it can also be complicated to start deploying to the cloud, as you need to figure out the […]

Having explored the innovative MySQL HeatWave technology that converts Natural Language into SQL (Ask Your Database Anything: Natural Language to SQL in MySQL HeatWave), our next article in this series, dives into a practical use case demonstrating how an AI DBA Assistant can significantly simplify your query generation workflow. In MySQL, there are 3 specialized […]

As databases grow, DBAs and developers often face a tough choice:
+ Keep historical data in production tables and risk slow queries
+ Archive it and lose fast access

With HeatWave, you don’t have to choose. You can archive old partitions, keep recent data in production, and still run lightning-fast queries across all your data.

Have you already tried to upgrade the MySQL version of your MySQL HeatWave instance in OCI that is deployed with Terraform? When you tried, you realized, I hope you didn’t turn off backups, that the instance is destroyed and recreated new! This is our current MySQL HeatWave DB System deployed using Terrafrom: And this is […]
