MySQL Proxy. A powerful, flexible MySQL toolbox.Miguel Araújo
MySQL-Proxy is a software application that, as the name suggests, sits between your client and MySQL server(s) allowing you to monitor, analyse or transform that communication. It communicates over the network using the MySQL network protocol and as so, in its the most basic configuration, Proxy simply interposes itself between the server and clients, passing queries from the client to the server and its responses on the other way around. This opens the possibility of changing the communication packets when needed, allowing thus being used for multiple purposes being the most remarkable query analysis, query filtering and modification, load balancing, failover, query injection and pooling.
On this session I'll present and give you a global overview of MySQL-Proxy and the concepts behind it. Use-cases, technical overview and architecture will follow. And of course, everyone will want to see it working so that'll be included as well in parallel with detailed explanation on how you can use it to fulfill your needs.
Clustering MySQL is a mainstream technology to handle todays web loads. Regardless whether you choose MySQL Replication, MySQL Cluster or any other type of clustering solution you will need a load balancer. PECL/mysqlnd_ms 1.4 is a driver integrated load balancer for PHP. It works with all APIs, is free, semi-transparent, at the best possible layer in your stack and loaded with features. Get an overview of the latest development version 1.4.
A tutorial on MySQL High Availability on the Pacemaker stack. Covers both MySQL on DRBD, and MySQL with MySQL replication.
Presented by Florian Haas and Yves Trudeau at the Percona Live MySQL Conference & Expo, 2012
MySQL 5.6 Global Transaction IDs - Use case: (session) consistencyUlf Wendel
PECL/mysqlnd_ms is a transparent load balancer for PHP and MySQL. It can be used with any kind of MySQL Cluster. If used with MySQL Replication it has some tricks to offer to break out of the default eventual consistency of the lazy primary copy design of MySQL Replication. It is using global transaction ids to lower read load on the master while still offering session consistency. Users of MySQL 5.6 can use the server built-in global transaction id feature, everybody else can use the driver built-in emulation that works with previous MySQL versions as well. Of course, its a mysqlnd plugin and as such it works with all PHP MySQL APIs (mysql, mysqli, PDO_MySQL). Happy hacking!
MySQL High Availability and Disaster Recovery with Continuent, a VMware companyContinuent
Users seeking high availability, disaster recovery and zero downtime maintenance operation for business-critical MySQL applications face confusing choices. Is multi-master or master/slave clustering better? What about synchronous versus asynchronous replication? Using a plain vanilla, stock MySQL or a modified version of it? Which of these choices are right for data-driven businesses that depend on fast, reliable data access?
This no-BS webinar cuts through the FUD to explore the real trade-offs between the different clustering and replication methods, thens show you how Continuent's asynchronous master/slave clusters support these important capabilities for business-critical applications:
- High application write rates Master/slave clustering with Continuent
- Mixed workloads consisting of large and small transactions
- Data across multiple geographically distributed locations
- Failures and more importantly recovery from them
- Zero downtime maintenance and software upgrades
- Use of off-the-shelf MySQL/MariaDB to avoid application changes and allow clusters to improve as MySQL itself does.
We illustrate key points with demonstrations and case studies from deployed systems.
MySQL Fabric is an open-source framework for the management of farms of servers. It is designed to be easy to use and available for both small and large server farms.
In order to create a solution that is truly resilient to failures, it is necessary to ensure redundancy of every component in the system and have a solid foundation for detecting and handling failures.
In this session, you will learn how to build a robust
high-availability solution using MySQL Fabric, what components you need and how they should be set up. You will learn how MySQL Fabric handles high-availability of the application servers and how to ensure high-availability of the Fabric system as a whole. You will also learn how to leverage, for example, OpenStack to ensure that the system keeps operating in the presence of failures.

In this tutorial we will take Mediawiki, one of the most popular open-source wiki applications, and we will use it to discuss schema and scalability design problems we suffered on Wikipedia. We will discuss how they were solved (or how we plan to solve them).
Forget about basic normalization theory or performance promises made by vendors in an ideal world. All topics discussed will be based on *actual problems* found when trying to handle the infrastructure of one of the top 10 most popular websites.
* Target audience: Developers using MySQL from any programming language; or system administrators, devops and architects in charge of the data model of its application
* Requirements: Basic SQL. Ability to read PHP. Basic familiarity with how wikis/Wikipedia works.
* Session dynamic: You are expected to contribute actively- it will not be a lecture format
* Topics (practical cases):
- Case #0: Pages and revisions
- Case #2: Supporting 290 languages
- Case #3: An abnormal denormalization
- Case #4: Key-value system
- Case #5: Revisions and deletions
- Case #6: What's links here
- Case #7: A large table
- Case #8: Anecdotes: The ghost tables and Timestamps
- Case #9: Slots

Vasiliy Fomichev - Harness the Power of Containers - SUGCONSUGCON
Get All Your Mongo and Solr Environments under Control: Sitecore xDB has introduced another layer of maintenance complexity – Mongo database. Many .NET developers have only heard about it, let alone, never set it up. Add a Solr Cloud configuration on top of that, and we have a recipe for a huge headache.
The new complexity introduces a learning curve, and a possibility for a wider range of issues:
1. The need for xDB and Solr configurations locally increases the time and complexity of local development environments
2. The higher number of user systems and technologies increases the chances of unforeseen errors due to systems getting out of sync, resulting in issues that are hard to troubleshoot
3. The need for reproducing the same initial setup in many different environments (development, QA, UAT, Staging, Production…etc.) makes that much more room for human error, introducing configuration discrepancies

Search and Society: Reimagining Information Access for Radical FuturesBhaskar Mitra
The field of Information retrieval (IR) is currently undergoing a transformative shift, at least partly due to the emerging applications of generative AI to information access. In this talk, we will deliberate on the sociotechnical implications of generative AI for information access. We will argue that there is both a critical necessity and an exciting opportunity for the IR community to re-center our research agendas on societal needs while dismantling the artificial separation between the work on fairness, accountability, transparency, and ethics in IR and the rest of IR research. Instead of adopting a reactionary strategy of trying to mitigate potential social harms from emerging technologies, the community should aim to proactively set the research agenda for the kinds of systems we should build inspired by diverse explicitly stated sociotechnical imaginaries. The sociotechnical imaginaries that underpin the design and development of information access technologies needs to be explicitly articulated, and we need to develop theories of change in context of these diverse perspectives. Our guiding future imaginaries must be informed by other academic fields, such as democratic theory and critical theory, and should be co-developed with social science scholars, legal scholars, civil rights and social justice activists, and artists, among others.

Epistemic Interaction - tuning interfaces to provide information for AI supportAlan Dix
Paper presented at SYNERGY workshop at AVI 2024, Genoa, Italy. 3rd June 2024
https://alandix.com/academic/papers/synergy2024-epistemic/
As machine learning integrates deeper into human-computer interactions, the concept of epistemic interaction emerges, aiming to refine these interactions to enhance system adaptability. This approach encourages minor, intentional adjustments in user behaviour to enrich the data available for system learning. This paper introduces epistemic interaction within the context of human-system communication, illustrating how deliberate interaction design can improve system understanding and adaptation. Through concrete examples, we demonstrate the potential of epistemic interaction to significantly advance human-computer interaction by leveraging intuitive human communication strategies to inform system design and functionality, offering a novel pathway for enriching user-system engagements.

PHP Frameworks: I want to break free (IPC Berlin 2024)Ralf Eggert
In this presentation, we examine the challenges and limitations of relying too heavily on PHP frameworks in web development. We discuss the history of PHP and its frameworks to understand how this dependence has evolved. The focus will be on providing concrete tips and strategies to reduce reliance on these frameworks, based on real-world examples and practical considerations. The goal is to equip developers with the skills and knowledge to create more flexible and future-proof web applications. We'll explore the importance of maintaining autonomy in a rapidly changing tech landscape and how to make informed decisions in PHP development.
This talk is aimed at encouraging a more independent approach to using PHP frameworks, moving towards a more flexible and future-proof approach to PHP development.
"Impact of front-end architecture on development cost", Viktor TurskyiFwdays
I have heard many times that architecture is not important for the front-end. Also, many times I have seen how developers implement features on the front-end just following the standard rules for a framework and think that this is enough to successfully launch the project, and then the project fails. How to prevent this and what approach to choose? I have launched dozens of complex projects and during the talk we will analyze which approaches have worked for me and which have not.
Let's dive deeper into the world of ODC! Ricardo Alves (OutSystems) will join us to tell all about the new Data Fabric. After that, Sezen de Bruijn (OutSystems) will get into the details on how to best design a sturdy architecture within ODC.
