The first cut of a Java EE implementation of Olio is now checked into the repository. The file docs/java_setup.html gives instructions on how to build and setup this implementation. The implementation uses JSP, servlets, JPA for persistence, yahoo and Jmaki widgets for AJAX etc. The web application is located in webapp/java/trunk and the load driver, database and file loaders etc. are in workload/java/trunk.
Check it out.

Travelling to Hongkong and Taipei has made such an impression on me, that I couldn’t help but add two new blogs to my homepage kaj.arno.fi:
Guanxi means “relations”, as in “Community Relations”. It’s also a very common word describing how to get things done in China. It even has its own English language Wikipedia entry.
Yi-ling-yi means one-oh-one, as in Taipei 101. …
[Read more]So, is Oracle’s acquisition of Sun good for MySQL or not so much? And, specifically what does it mean for data warehousing on MySQL, which is one of the top 5 use cases for the leading open source database? While there are mixed views in the market about the fate of MySQL, it’s usually pretty easy to predict Oracle’s behavior - they are a for-profit company looking to maximize their return on investment and protect their own commercial database business.
For what they’re worth, my own views on the subject can be summarized as follows:
This Thursday (May 7th, 14:00 UTC), Lars Thalmann
will give a MySQL University session on MySQL Replication: Walk-through of the new 5.1 and
6.0 features. Lars is leading the replication and backup
teams at MySQL, so this is one of the best opportunities to ask
whatever questions you might have about new replication features
in MySQL.

[Read more]As you may or may not know, long long ago (in this universe) I used to be the MySQL documentation team Yes, a team of one. This was 2001. It was a great and interesting time. The current much extended team is doing a great job with the now much bigger set of docs!
Today, I find myself disagreeing with my former colleagues on one particular aspect, namely its licensing. You see, the documentation has never been released under an open license, it used to be plainly copyright all rights reserved, and later some rights were granted to distribute the docs together with the server.
Statements made earlier by Karen Padir regarding possible opening up of the docs license filled us with hope. Then, Stefan Hinz (the current docs team lead) wrote a blog entry MySQL documentation: no license change. Some of the arguments there we can …

In a blog post today, Stefan of the MySQL
documentation team says that the MySQL documents will not be open
sourced. Now, I have to go back and review the MySQL CE Keynote
that Karen gave, but I'm pretty sure she said to the audience
that it was "going to happen". Why would she even bother bringing
it up in the keynote if it was never really being considered
anyway? There has been little community input on this, and I for
one am outraged that a GPL product would not release the
documentation as GPL too.
I'm now totally convinced that MySQL does not understand, and
will never understand the MySQL community.
Is this an opportunity for Oracle to try to stall community
participation in MySQL? I don't want to be paranoid, but this
could just be the hints of bold new changes in MySQL strategy,
especially considering Karen's …
