What questions do you ask?

When you have to evaluate a MySQL System & Environment, what questions do you ask in order to determine critical information about the environment and evaluate the business success and viability. You don’t have to be a consultant to ask these questions, ask them of your own environment. Do any of the answers shock or concern you?

I was prompted to write about this from a conversation with a colleague about “accepting risk”. His comment was, “every IT server on the planet is vulnerable regardless of best practices.”

Here is my list of questions for you based on an immediate response from this discussion?

Technology

  • What is your full technology stack, i.e. Operating System, Database, Application Server, Development Language(s) and other essential components?
  • What are the versions of these technologies?
  • What new technologies or versions of existing technologies are …

mysql.com search is so broken

Today, while on the MySQL manual page, I typed in ’select’ in the search manual box to confirm the SELECT syntax.

The result was not what I expected, the “SELECT” command. Instead I only got two options “Speed of SELECT …” and “Optimizing SELECT and …”.

Ok, well that’s not what I want, there is a suggestion box to the right so I pick the top option “mysql select”. Not only is this worse with “Type Conversion in …”, “Searching on Two Keys” I also get 3 totally useless “Keymatch” records

I know in the past just entering ‘SELECT’ worked, because I’ve been presently writing tests on JOIN syntax and I wanted to link in my blog …

Developing Code Coverage for MySQL tests

I have always been a strong advocate of good testing of any system. I started on a project last year with Drizzle to produce coverage tests to facilitate verifying syntax and helping in comparison with MySQL.

From my extensive experience in code generation from the past 20 years, I produced about 3 years ago when at MySQL Professional Services a Java based solution with a small meta language to automated the creation of a large number of tests. At the time is was some 475 tests and 200k lines of mysql-test syntax when I first looked at validating the Nitro Storage Engine.

A number of issues with mysql-tests including the support of multiple storage engines had me last year write a Proposed Testing Protocol for Drizzle for further discussion. …
