Binlog and Replication Improvements in Percona Server for MySQL

Due to continuous development and improvement, Percona Server for MySQL incorporates a number of improvements related to binary log handling and replication. This results in replication specifics, distinguishing it from MySQL Server.

Temporary tables and mixed logging format Summary of the fix:

As soon as some statement involving temporary tables was met when using a mixed binlog format, MySQL switched to row-based logging for all statements until the end of the session (or until all temporary tables used in the session were dropped). This is inconvenient when you have long-lasting connections, including replication-related ones. Percona Server for MySQL fixes the situation by switching between …

MySQL, Percona Server for MySQL and MariaDB Default Configuration Differences

In this blog post, I’ll discuss some of the MySQL and MariaDB default configuration differences, focusing on MySQL 5.7 and MariaDB 10.2. Percona Server for MySQL uses the same defaults as MySQL, so I will not list them separately.

MariaDB Server is a general purpose open source database, created by the founders of MySQL. MariaDB Server (referred to as MariaDB for brevity) has similar roots as Percona Server for MySQL, but is quickly diverging from MySQL compatibility and growing on its own. MariaDB has become the default installation for several operating systems (such as Red Hat Enterprise Linux/CentOS/Fedora). Changes in the default variables can make a large difference in the out-of-box …

Plan to improve the out of the Box Experience in MySQL 8.0

In MySQL 8.0, we will be introducing a new configuration parameter called innodb_dedicated_server=bool. When ON, this option will look at the system memory, and then automatically set the these configuration parameters using the following rules:

innodb_buffer_pool_size

server_memory < 1G ?

MySQL 8.0.2 More Flexible Undo Tablespace Management

In MySQL 8.0.2 DMR we will introduce features which make managing undo tablespaces easier in InnoDB.

The main improvement is that you can now create and drop undo tablespaces at any time.  You can change the config file setting before any startup, whether recovery is needed or not. …

Register Now  MySQL is famous for being something you can install and get going in less than five minutes in terms of development. But normally you want to run MySQL in production, and at scale. This requires some planning and knowledge. So why not learn the best practices around installation, configuration, deployment and backup?

Blog Series: MySQL Configuration Management

MySQL configuration management remains a hot topic, as I’ve noticed on numerous occasions during my conversations with customers.

I thought it might be a good idea to start a blog series that goes deeper in detail into some of the different options, and what modules potentially might be used for managing your MySQL database infrastructure.

Configuration management has been around since way before the beginning of my professional career. I, myself, originally began working on integrating an infrastructure with my colleagues using Puppet.

Why is configuration management important?

  • Reproducibility. It’s giving us the ability to provision any environment in an automated way, and feel sure that the new environment will contain …

MySQL 8.0: Persisting configuration variables

Starting with MySQL 8.0 we are introducing a new feature which will allow configuration variables to be persisted. This means that for a number of configuration settings, you will no longer need to manually edit a configuration file and can instead make modifications directly via an SQL connection.…

11 new features coming in MySQL 8.0 that will make your eyebrows raise

MySQL has just released MySQL 8.0 DR (and yes, DR stands for Don’t Run-it-in-production-yet) so let’s jump right in and take a look at the hottest new features coming in this new release:

1. Persistent runtime configuration changes. Love it. From now on we’ll be able to use SET PERSIST innodb_buffer_pool_size = X; instead of SET GLOBAL innodb_buffer_pool_size = X; for the runtime changes to persist during a restart. It may not make much sense if you’re using a modern database that doesn’t even have a configuration file, but for us who lived with MySQL for over 20 years, this is huge!

How does it work? In a nutshell, these changes are saved in mysqld-auto.cnf file in MySQL data directory.

2. MySQL privilege tables are now InnoDB. I think this was …

Feedback Request: Enforcing SQL Mode

MySQL Server has an extensive collection of SQL modes which control a range of behavior ranging from compatibility modes for other RDBMS dialects (ANSI_QUOTES, PIPES_AS_CONCAT) to security (NO_AUTO_CREATE_USER) to explicit storage engine selection (NO_ENGINE_SUBSTITUTION) to restricting lossy implicit data conversions ( …
