MySQL Tech Tour 2015 - Alt Intro

MySQL offers several new functionality to enhance security and make MySQL suitable for critical environments. Several add-ons help achieving regulatory compliance like PCI-DSS. Here is an overview of these features.

This document provides an overview of Oracle Enterprise Manager and how it integrates MySQL monitoring and management. It discusses how the MySQL plugin allows Oracle Enterprise Manager to provide a single dashboard to manage Oracle and MySQL stacks. Key features covered include performance monitoring, configuration management, and integration with other Oracle products. The benefits of MySQL Enterprise Edition are also summarized.

The document discusses blending NoSQL and SQL databases by leveraging the strengths of both. It describes how MySQL Cluster provides massively scalable performance through its NoSQL-style data storage and replication abilities, while also supporting SQL queries, joins, and ACID transactions like a traditional relational database. This allows applications to use NoSQL for simple operations and scalability while still using SQL for complex queries and transactions as needed.

- 43% of companies experienced a data breach in the past year, with major breaches exposing over 500 million identities in 2013 alone. Cybercrime costs the global economy $575 billion per year. - The 2013 Target breach exposed 40 million credit/debit cards and 70 million customer records, costing $270 million. A major data breach is discovered every month. - Database vulnerabilities include poor configurations, overprivileged accounts, weak access controls, authentication and auditing. Attacks include SQL injection, buffer overflows, brute force attacks and malware. Malicious actions can cause information disclosure, denial of service, privilege escalation, spoofing and data tampering.

MySQL 5.7 is GA. Here is the news about our NoSQL features in MySQL and MySQL Cluster, with a lot of emphasize on the new JSON features that make MySQL suitable as a document store.

The objective of this presentation is to give Oracle DBAs the necessary background information to understand what is doable with MySQL and how to integrate MySQL instances into the Oracle world.

MySQL InnoDB Cluster provides a complete high availability solution for MySQL. It uses MySQL Group Replication, which allows for multiple read-write replicas of a database to exist with synchronous replication. MySQL InnoDB Cluster also includes MySQL Shell for setup, management and orchestration of the cluster, and MySQL Router for intelligent connection routing. It allows databases to scale out writes across replicas in a fault-tolerant and self-healing manner.

The document discusses new features in MySQL 5.7 related to replication. It covers improvements to usability through online reconfiguration of global transaction IDs and replication filters. It also describes enhanced replication monitoring using performance schema tables and improved applier performance through locking-based parallelism. The agenda includes sections on replication features in 5.7, news from development, and future plans.

In most production OpenStack installations, you want the backing metadata store to be highly available. For this, the de facto standard has become MySQL+Galera. In order to help you meet this basic use case even better, I will introduce you to the brand new native MySQL HA solution called MySQL Group Replication. This allows you to easily go from a single instance of MySQL to a MySQL service that's natively distributed and highly available, while eliminating the need for any third party library and implementations. If you have an extremely large OpenStack installation in production, then you are likely to eventually run into write scaling issues and the metadata store itself can become a bottleneck. For this use case, MySQL NDB Cluster can allow you to linearly scale the metadata store as your needs grow. I will introduce you to the core features of MySQL NDB Cluster--which include in-memory OLTP, transparent sharding, and support for active/active multi-datacenter clusters--that will allow you to meet even the most demanding of use cases with ease.
