dasini.net – Diary of a MySQL expert

This is the third episode of “Discovering MySQL Database Service“, a series of tutorials where I will show you, step by step, how to use MySQL Database Service and some other Oracle Cloud Infrastructure services.

In the previous episode we’ve created our compartment, the foundation stone, of the architecture that we will build during this Discovering MySQL Database Service journey.

In this episode, we’ll see what is a Virtual Cloud Network (VCN) and how to create one and use it.

This is the second episode of “Discovering MySQL Database Service“, a series of tutorials where I will show you, step by step, how to use MySQL Database Service and some other Oracle Cloud Infrastructure services.

In the previous episode we’ve introduced the different components that we will use during this Discovering MySQL Database Service journey.

In this episode, we’ll see what is a compartment and how to create one and use it in order to create a MySQL DB system.

This is the first episode of “Discovering MySQL Database Service“, a series of tutorials where I will show you, step by step, how to use MySQL Database Service and some other Oracle Cloud Infrastructure services.

Like any series, in this episode I’m going to give you some context and set up the characters.

If you have (too) long running select queries it is probably because of lack of relevant indexes, problematic schema that lead to poor queries or inadequate hardware.

That said, sometime even if you doing it right, the query execution time could be too long regarding of what the application or your users expect. It is often true for reporting, real time analytics or BI queries.

At Oracle we have developed Heatwave, that allow you to easily run high performance analytics against your MySQL database.

To be more precise, Heatwave is a massively-scalable integrated analytics engine for MySQL Database Service (MDS), the MySQL DBaaS in Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI).

Some key points of Heatwave:

– Single MySQL database for OLTP & analytics applications
– All existing applications work without any changes
– Extreme performance:
+ 400x faster than MySQL, scales to thousands of cores
+ 1100x faster than Amazon
Aurora
+ 2.7x faster than Amazon Redshift

Up until now we have seen MDS (MySQL Database Service) and MySQL in Azure.
As the Cloud technology keeps moving fast, I thought it would be a good idea to see how to set up a MySQL in Amazon , as a service, that is RDS.

MySQL Replication is a very common topology, widely used in various architecture.
People use it, among others, for High Availability, Read Scalability or Geographic Redundancy.

Another use case is to use MySQL Replication to seamlessly integrate a newer version of the server in your architecture.
Let’s say you are running MySQL 5.7 then you can easily setup a 8.0 instance as a replica of your 5.7.

Extending this idea it is also possible to replicate your MySQL 5.7 (or 8.0 obviously) to a MySQL Database Service instance, the true MySQL PaaS on Oracle Cloud Infrastructure.

In this article, we are going to see how to set up a MySQL Database instance on Microsoft Azure Cloud.

MySQL Database Service (MDS) est un service d’Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) entièrement développé, géré et supporté par l’équipe MySQL d’Oracle.

Venez découvrir le nouveau MySQL Cloud Service d’Oracle et toutes les nouveautés produits MySQL annoncées à Oracle Open World

Vous utilisez ou envisagez d’utiliser des services cloud pour votre projet ? Le nouveau MySQL Cloud Service d’Oracle fournit un service cloud simple, automatisé, intégré, prêt à l’emploi, pour permettre aux organisations et aux éditeurs de logiciels (ISV) de développer et déployer des applications avec MySQL, de manière globale et scalable.

Nous vous convions à ce Tech Tour MySQL, pour apprendre et comprendre comment cela peut vous aider de manière rapide, sécurisée, et avec un modèle économique adapté, à délivrer des applications modernes et réussir votre transformation digitale.

De plus, nous reviendrons sur les dernières nouveautés MySQL annoncées à Oracle Open World avec le nouveau MySQL Cluster 7.5, MySQL 8.0…

Pour vous architectes, développeurs, DBA, nos experts techniques feront un focus sur deux sujets importants dans les nouveaux projets :

Le développement orienté « Document » qui est maintenant natif depuis MySQL 5.7, et qui s’enrichit avec les nouvelles X Dev APIs.
La mise en place d’architecture haute disponibilité avec l’utilisation de multi-master.
