Is Synchronous Replication right for your app?

May 14, 2013 By Jay Janssen 17 Comments

I talk with lot of people who are really interested in Percona XtraDB Cluster (PXC) and mostly they are interested in PXC as a high-availability solution. But, what they tend not to think too much about is if moving from async to synchronous replication is right for their application or not. Facts about Galera replication [...]

Follow these basics when migrating to Percona XtraDB Cluster for MySQL

May 1, 2013 By Jervin Real 10 Comments

Galera/Percona XtraDB Cluster (PXC) for MySQL is a hot thing right now and some users jump right in without enough testing. Consequently, they’re more likely to either suffer failure or issues that prevent them from moving forward. If you are thinking of migrating your workload to Percona XtraDB Cluster, make sure to go through these [...]

InnoDB Full-text Search in MySQL 5.6: Part 2, The Queries!

March 4, 2013 By Ernie Souhrada 7 Comments

This is part 2 in a 3 part series. In part 1, we took a quick look at some initial configuration of InnoDB full-text search and discovered a little bit of quirky behavior; here, we are going to run some queries and compare the result sets. Our hope is that the one of two things [...]

InnoDB Full-text Search in MySQL 5.6 (part 1)

February 26, 2013 By Ernie Souhrada 1 Comment

I’ve never been a very big fan of MyISAM; I would argue that in most situations, any possible advantages to using MyISAM are far outweighed by the potential disadvantages and the strengths of InnoDB. However, up until MySQL 5.6, MyISAM was the only storage engine with support for full-text search (FTS). And I’ve encountered many [...]

Implications of Metadata Locking Changes in MySQL 5.5

February 1, 2013 By Ovais Tariq 9 Comments

While most of the talk recently has mostly been around the new changes in MySQL 5.6 (and that is understandable), I have had lately some very interesting cases to deal with, with respect to the Metadata Locking related changes that were introduced in MySQL 5.5.3. It appears that the implications of Metadata Locking have not [...]

Edge-case behavior of INSERT…ODKU

October 27, 2012 By Ernie Souhrada 6 Comments

A few weeks back, I was working on a customer issue wherein they were observing database performance that dropped through the floor (to the point of an outage) roughly every 4 weeks or so. Nothing special about the environment, the hardware, or the queries; really, the majority of the database was a single table with [...]

When is MIN(DATE) != MIN(DATE) ?

September 4, 2012 By Ernie Souhrada 5 Comments

Inspiration for this post is courtesy of a friend and former colleague of mine, Greg Youngblood, who pinged me last week with an interesting MySQL puzzle. He was running Percona Server 5.5.21 with a table structure that looks something like this:

CREATE TABLE foo (
 id INT UNSIGNED NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT PRIMARY KEY,
 uid INT UNSIGNED NOT NULL,
 update_time DATETIME NOT NULL,
 ....
 INDEX `uid` (uid, update_time),
 INDEX `bar` (some_other_columns)
 ....
) ENGINE=InnoDB;

CREATE TABLE foo (

id INT UNSIGNED NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT PRIMARY KEY,

uid INT UNSIGNED NOT NULL,

update_time DATETIME NOT NULL,

....

INDEX `uid` (uid, update_time),

INDEX `bar` (some_other_columns)

....

) ENGINE=InnoDB;

When he ran this query:

SELECT MIN(update_time) FROM foo WHERE update_time IS NOT NULL AND update_time <> '0000-00-00 00:00:00';

1	SELECT MIN(update_time) FROM foo WHERE update_time IS NOT NULL AND update_time <> '0000-00-00 00:00:00';

The result came back as 2012-06-22 10:28:16. [...]

Differences between READ-COMMITTED and REPEATABLE-READ transaction isolation levels

August 28, 2012 By Justin Swanhart 3 Comments

As an instructor with Percona I’m sometimes asked about the differences between the READ COMMITTED and REPEATABLE READ transaction isolation levels. There are a few differences between READ-COMMITTED and REPEATABLE-READ, and they are all related to locking.
