I find days like this one very productive for getting you out of your comfort zone and being exposed to new ideas. For anyone not completely confident I'd recommend brushing up on your use of MySQL CLI so that you can keep up with the tutorials, I fell behind and had to spend the break catching up ;) Thanks Morgan and Percona, it was a great opportunity :) As more of a PHP developer and designer than a DB manager this was a bit over my head but was still incredibly useful.

I've been using MySQL for years, and even consider myself somewhat knowledgeable, but the information I gained on InnoDB and XtraDB was very interesting, and I've already been able to affect our roll our plans to make better use of the technology available. Pity, I sound like a shill. Anyways, I learned a lot, and I thought I knew a bunch already.

Morgan's great depth of knowledge in the subject matter was invaluable, and I suspect we'll be hiring him and/or Percona for more consultations. Thanks again for the invite to the practice teach Morgan, I really appreciated it! As an old Postgres guy, this workshop helped me learn more about how MySQL does things, pros and cons.
