My SQL outperformed any initial thoughts that I had… I am happy.

Peter,

Thanks for the list. May I suggest to revise and update this list and add the tools mentioned by the users plus some of the many ‘new’ great tools introduced at the Percona conference to this list?

I’d like to suggest a web based mysql manager, it’s called AeroSQL: http://www.burlaca.com/aerosql/
There is a demo, video and screenshots. In the future it will feature administration functionality.

AeroSQL is a free web based tool for managing MySql servers written in PHP. The key feature of the product is an intuitive management of the database content. The result of SELECTs is displayed in a grid as in traditional desktop applications.

Why can’t I find any info on a tool or methodology for being easily notified when MySQL has a table crash?
It seems silly that the application would have to build in handlers for every query to detect whether some table has crashed and notify someone about it…. why haven’t I seen some low level powerful support for this right in MySQL.

We turned on error logging and can get _some_ of the crashed tables to show up in the error log, but even then you would have to run something to watch the log and notify you. That would be better than nothing, but even that doesn’t seem to be on any SysAdmin’s radar or mentioned in documentation anywhere. Why are MySQL System Administrators slighted by the developers so much?

Am I missing something obvious?

I am not sure if this is place to post this question, but i am in desperate situation.My projects require me to log any action like the system shall record within each audit record the following information when it is available: (1) date and time of the event; (2) the component of the system (e.g. software component, hardware component) where the event occurred; (3) type of event (including: data description and patient identifier when relevant); (4) subject identity (e.g. user identity); and (5) the outcome (success or failure) of the event.

Can anybody help me out how to start on this.I am a newbie and did not work with logging tables before.Any info,documents,links,basic things to take care,how to set up,pre and post requirements, what should be my approach towards this.

thanks
alan

myDBR (http://mydbr.nocsos.com) is a web based reporting system for MySQL that allows you to build and manage a scalable reporting environment. Even the more complex reports can be authored with ease.

Also, Dtrace is nothing stellar, but interface. You can achieve the very same functionality with linux kernel probes, but its more demanding. in a way…

It works pretty well for a mobile client. I like the ability to write multi line queries too.
