Feed: Planet MySQL; Author: Michael McLaughlin; While updating my class image to Fedora 27, I noticed that it installed the Akonadi Server. The documentation on the Akonadi server lacked some straightforward documentation. It also offered a bundled set of software that limited how to approach MySQL development. So, I removed all those packages with the following syntax: dnf remove `rpm -qa | grep akonadi` After removing those Akonadi packages, I installed the MySQL Community Edition from the Fedora repo with this syntax: yum install -y community-mysql* Having installed MySQL Community Edition, I started the service with this command: sudo service ...

Feed: Planet MySQL; Author: John Scott; Most companies make a mistake at the very beginning.  They set their system time zone to Eastern, Central, Mountain, or Pacific time.  Then, they install their database on it.  They use all manner of timestamp and date types and insert terabytes of data.  After that, it becomes almost impossible (in terms of being worth the effort) to change it some months or years later when the company has a popular product or service.  One of the unfortunate issues that may arise is illegal datetimes. On Sunday, March 11, 2018, when US time zones switched ... Read More

Feed: R-bloggers. Author: David Robinson. A very useful concept in software engineering is technical debt. Technical debt occurs when engineers choose a quick but suboptimal solution to a problem, or don’t spend time to build sustainable infrastructure. Maybe they’re using an approach that doesn’t scale well as the team and codebase expand (such as hardcoding “magic numbers”), or using a tool for reasons of convenience rather than appropriateness (“we’ll write the DevOps infrastructure in PHP since that’s what our team already knows”). Either way, it’s something that seems like it’s working at first but causes real challenges in the long-term, ... Read More

Feed: Blog. Author: katherinetk; Automation is one of DevOps' core components. It enables enterprise development teams to adopt a more standardized, error-resistant approach to software delivery. Although there are a range of automation tools on the market, native AWS development services can help teams work together to quickly ship quality software. But before teams adopt these services, which include CodeComit, CodeBuild and CodeDeploy, it's important to understand how they work together in an AWS deployment pipeline. In a traditional build-and-release process, code checks into a source control repository, where developers perform actions -- such as compiling it into an installer or creating ... Read More
