Early this month I spoke at linux.conf.au in Perth, Australia, where I presented “Past, Present and Future of MySQL and variants.”

Here’s my presentation in its entirety. Please let me know if you have any questions or comments. (linux.conf.au is widely regarded by delegates as one of the best community run Linux conferences worldwide.)

Hi Stewart,

First of all, thank you for your *A Googly MySQL Cluster Talk* which you
did quite a while back. I’ve been trying to get MySQL Cluster up and
running for over a week and it’s been a bigger project than anticipated. I
wish I had seen your talk before starting! You talked with a depth of
knowledge that I had not yet witnessed and was beginning to doubt existed;
after numerous fruitless searches on the web… quite like a drink of cool
water (or beer) after crawling through arid desert in the hot sun.

I’m handling the server work for an iPhone app that is currently released
in Australia and soon to be global. I am really hoping that I can ask you a
question or two about the cluster, with regards to general performance and
the use of an efficient Java API.

You’re help would be greatly appreciated!

I can send you some beer if that helps 😉

Thanks,
Paul

Hi Stewart,

I just read a little about Percona and realize that a beer probably won’t do it.

Thanks anyway mate!

Cheers,
Paul
