  • Beyond Relational Databases
    EXPERT ANALYSIS BY MARCOS ALBE, SUPPORT ENGINEER, PERCONA Beyond Relational Databases: A Focus on Redis, MongoDB, and ClickHouse Many of us use and love relational databases… until we try and use them for purposes which aren’t their strong point. Queues, caches, catalogs, unstructured data, counters, and many other use cases, can be solved with relational databases, but are better served by alternative options. In this expert analysis, we examine the goals, pros and cons, and the good and bad use cases of the most popular alternatives on the market, and look into some modern open source implementations. Beyond Relational Databases Developers frequently choose the backend store for the applications they produce. Amidst dozens of options, buzzwords, industry preferences, and vendor offers, it’s not always easy to make the right choice… Even with a map! !# O# d# "# a# `# @R*7-# @94FA6)6 =F(*I-76#A4+)74/*2(:# ( JA$:+49>)# &-)6+16F-# (M#@E61>-#W6e6# &6EH#;)7-6<+# &6EH# J(7)(:X(78+# !"#$%&'( S-76I6)6#'4+)-:-7# A((E-N# ##@E61>-#;E678# ;)762(# .01.%2%+'.('.$%,3( @E61>-#;(F7# D((9F-#=F(*I## =(:c*-:)U@E61>-#W6e6# @F2+16F-# G*/(F-# @Q;# $%&## @R*7-## A6)6S(77-:)U@E61>-#@E-N# K4E-F4:-A%# A6)6E7(1# %49$:+49>)+# @E61>-#'*1-:-# @E61>-#;6<R6# L&H# A6)6#'68-# $%&#@:6F521+#M(7#@E61>-#;E678# .761F-#;)7-6<#LNEF(7-7# S-76I6)6#=F(*I# A6)6/7418+# @ !"#$%&'( ;H=JO# ;(\X67-#@D# M(7#J6I((E# .761F-#%49#A6)6#=F(*I# @ )*&+',"-.%/( S$%=.#;)7-6<%6+-# =F(*I-76# LF6+21+-671># ;G';)7-6<# LF6+21#[(*:I# @E61>-#;"# @E61>-#;)(7<# H618+E61-# *&'+,"#$%&'$#( .761F-#%49#A6)6#@EEF46:1-#

  • XAMPP Web Development Stack
    XAMPP Web Development Stack Overview @author R.L. Martinez, Ph.D. The steps below outline the processes for installing the XAMPP stack on a local machine. The XAMPP (pronounced Zamp) stack includes the following: Apache HTTP Server, MariaDB (essentially MySQL), Database Server, Perl, and the PHP Interpreter. The “X” in XAMPP is used to signify the cross-platform compatibility of the stack. The Apache HTTP Server and PHP are required to run phpMyAdmin which is a PHP application that is used for database administration tasks such as creating databases and tables, adding users, etc. Alternative to XAMPP If you have experience with MySQL Workbench, you may prefer to install MySQL Server and MySQL Workbench via the MySQL Installer. MySQL Workbench performs the same functions as phpMyAdmin. However, unlike phpMyAdmin which is a web-based application, MySQL Workbench is a locally installed application and therefore does not require an HTTP Server (e.g. Apache) to run. Installing XAMPP Many of the steps listed have several alternatives (such as changing MySQL passwords via a command line) and students are welcomed and encouraged to explore alternatives. 1. Download XAMPP from the URL below and place the installer (.exe) in the location where you want to install XAMPP. Placing the installer (.exe) in the same location as the intended installation is not required but preferred. http://www.apachefriends.org/download.html Page 1 of 17 XAMPP Web Development Stack 2. See the warning which recommends not installing to C:\Program Files (x86) which can be restricted by UAC (User Account Control). In the steps below XAMPP is installed to a USB flash drive for portability.

  • Mariadb Presentation
    THE VALUE OF OPEN SOURCE MICHAEL ”MONTY” WIDENIUS Entrepreneur, MariaDB Hacker, MariaDB CTO MariaDB Corporation AB 2019-09-25 Seoul 11 Reasons Open Source is Better than Closed Source ● Using open standards (no lock in into proprietary standards) ● Resource friendly; OSS software tend to work on old hardware ● Lower cost; Usually 1/10 of closed source software ● No cost for testing the full software ● Better documentation and more troubleshooting resources ● Better support, in many cases directly from the developers ● Better security, auditability (no trap doors and more eye balls) ● Better quality; Developed together with users ● Better customizability; You can also participate in development ● No vendor lock in; More than one vendor can give support ● When using open source, you take charge of your own future Note that using open source does not mean that you have to become a software producer! OPEN SOURCE, THE GOOD AND THE BAD ● Open source is a better way to develop software ● More developers ● More spread ● Better code (in many cases) ● Works good for projects that can freely used by a lot of companies in their production or products. ● It's very hard to create a profitable company developing an open source project. ● Not enough money to pay developers. ● Hard to get money and investors for most projects (except for infrastructure projects like libraries or daemon services). OPEN SOURCE IS NATURAL OR WHY OPEN SOURCE WORKS ● You use open source because it's less expensive (and re-usable) ● You solve your own problems and get free help and development efforts from others while doing it.

  • Towards the Universal Spatial Data Model Based Indexing and Its Implementation in Mysql
    Towards the universal spatial data model based indexing and its implementation in MySQL Evangelos Katsikaros Kongens Lyngby 2012 IMM-M.Sc.-2012-97 Technical University of Denmark Informatics and Mathematical Modelling Building 321, DK-2800 Kongens Lyngby, Denmark Phone +45 45253351, Fax +45 45882673 [email protected] www.imm.dtu.dk IMM-M.Sc.: ISSN XXXX-XXXX Summary This thesis deals with spatial indexing and models that are able to abstract the variety of existing spatial index solutions. This research involves a thorough presentation of existing dynamic spatial indexes based on R-trees, investigating abstraction models and implementing such a model in MySQL. To that end, the relevant theory is presented. A thorough study is performed on the recent and seminal works on spatial index trees and we describe their basic properties and the way search, deletion and insertion are performed on them. During this effort, we encountered details that baffled us, did not make the understanding the core concepts smooth or we thought that could be a source of confusion. We took great care in explaining in depth these details so that the current study can be a useful guide for a number of them. A selection of these models were later implemented in MySQL. We investigated the way spatial indexing is currently engineered in MySQL and we reveal how search, deletion and insertion are performed. This paves the path to the un- derstanding of our intervention and additions to MySQL's codebase. All of the code produced throughout this research was included in a patch against the RDBMS MariaDB.

Can improve by setting innodb_flush_log_at_trx_commit=0/2 and sync_binlog=0 Replication will be hosed after master crashes No durability (can loose commits during crash) “A choice between two evils” sync_binlog=1 performs badly Commits per second vs. number of connections, RAID 1 HDD Blue line is with binlog disabled Red line shows extreme penalty of enabling binlog SSD does not help enough. Commits per second, RAID 1 SSD with controller cache enabled Same picture, enabling binlog (red) has extreme penalty compared to disabled binlog (blue) Benchmark innodb_flush_log_at_trx_commit=1, and sync_binlog=1 Simple transactions REPLACE INTO t(a,b) VALUES ... 1M rows (fits in memory) Intel 12-core (24 hyperthread) server with 24GByte RAM RAID 1 HDD / Intel SSD Plot commits per second versus number of parallel threads Benchmark heavily bottlenecked on fsync() I/O No scaling We need to fix this!
