Now and then, we get questions about how to import an .ibd for use as a partition in a table, as well as how to exchange partitions with another partitioned table. Below is step-by-step instructions on how to move ... Read More

Feed: Planet MySQL. Author: Severalnines. Having too large a (write) workload on a master is dangerous. If the master collapses and a failover happens to one of its slave nodes, the slave node could collapse under the write pressure as well. To mitigate this problem you can shard horizontally across more nodes. Sharding increases the complexity of data storage though, and very often, it requires an overhaul of the application. In some cases, it may be impossible to make changes to an application. Luckily there is a simpler solution: functional sharding. With functional sharding you move a schema or table ... Read More

Feed: Planet MySQL. Author: Preetam Jinka. Backgroundlm2 is my ordered key-value storage library. You can read my post about it here. There’s a lot to say about this little library, so this will be the first of a few posts about how lm2 works and why I chose to do things a certain way. Caching lm2 is essentially a linked list on disk. Everyone knows linked lists aren’t very fast. Searches take a ridiculously long time and require a lot of seeking. That’s why lm2 has a record cache, which stores a subset of the key-value records in memory. This ... Read More

Feed: Database Trends and Applications : All Articles. With the rise of Hadoop, organizations are adopting the new platform to extend their analytical capabilities. However, despite the availability of the open source framework that supports the processing and storage of large datasets, data analysts still struggle to find and harness all types of data across the enterprise.Enterprises remain dominated by antiquated approaches to hand-coding, and code generation fails to automate labor-intensive manual processes or discover relationships between datasets. This can ultimately leave data inconsistent, incomplete, and stale for analytical use.As a result, organizations are now adopting data lake management innovations ... Read More
