Feed: Redis. Author: Steve Naventi. 18h | Ronald Hoogland, Head of IT, Gamepoint With the past coronavirus lockdown affecting all aspects of our life from how we worked to how we played, it was no secret that many looked to gaming as an escape. According to Verizon, in the US alone there was an 82% increase in video game usage during lockdown compared to pre-COVID levels, as gamers sought to entertain themselves while confined to their own homes. In the early weeks of the lockdown, this led to some games and gaming platforms smashing their usage records. Counter Strike: Global ... Read More

Feed: Planet MySQL; Author: Joshua Otwell; I recently watched a fantastic Python Pandas library tutorial series on YouTube. Without a doubt, Pandas is great for all sorts of data stuff. On the same token, MySQL Shell in Python mode is quite powerful in the sense that Python and the MySQL Shell (version >= 8.0) are somewhat united in the same environment. Although Pandas is in a league all its own when it comes to data analysis, between the power of MySQL and Python, we can also perform some basic analysis easily in MySQL Shell Python mode. In this blog post, ... Read More

Feed: Clustrix Blog. Author: Peter Friedenbach. What we tested: Relative performance of MariaDB vs MySQLHow we tested: Multi-statement, transaction processing workload (Sysbench 90:10)Where we tested: Amazon AWS EC2 and RDS, large to 12xlarge instancesWhat we conclude: MariaDB provides superior performance on commodity cloud hardware for real business workloads.

MariaDB Community Server and MySQL Server Community Edition, both Open Source, have over the years been packaged for many of the same Linux distributions, powering application stacks behind hundreds of popular websites and applications. And both are available in ... Read More

Feed: Clustrix Blog. Author: Rob Hedgpeth. Nearly a year ago, I accepted an offer to work on the developer relations team at MariaDB Corporation. I remember feeling pretty apprehensive and a little overwhelmed leading up to my first day. To be completely transparent, I didn’t have any previous experience using MariaDB. My first project was to write an application using React.js and Node.js built on MariaDB – oh and I had to present it in front of the entire company in two weeks. No big deal, right?Sure, throughout my years as an application developer I’d spent time working with relational ... Read More

Feed: Planet MySQL; Author: Paul Moen; So you need to build a new set of databases, perhaps in a new location or geographical zone. Management wants it done yesterday cause the newly updated service hit the front page of reddit and your website and its back-end databases are getting smashed. The standard method would be to stream a backup from the master or a dedicated backup slave and build each new read only slave from that backup. You tried streaming the backups in parallel using pssh because some random database blog said you can. https://dbadojo.com/2020/08/26/streaming-backups-in-parallel-using-pssh/ But that failed with a ...

Feed: Clustrix Blog. Author: Rupert Harwood. Database professionals will often groan when someone utters the word migration – it can be complex to move a database from one platform to another. There is one type of migration that need not cause consternation – the “lift and shift”. Lift and shift migrates an application or operation from one environment to another without the need to redesign the application or change operations workflow. Migrating from an on-prem MariaDB Server deployment to MariaDB SkySQL is a lift and shift, so is migrating from Amazon RDS for MariaDB or from Microsoft Azure for MariaDB ... Read More
