The World Has Changed, and We Need To Adapt The world has gone through a tremendous transformation in the last fifteen years. Cloud and microservices changed the world. Previously, our application was using one database; developers knew how it worked, and the deployment rarely happened. A single database administrator was capable of maintaining the database, optimizing the queries, and making sure things worked as expected.

At the time of writing, 99.9% of pages on the web include at least one image. The median image-weight per page landed at 881KB in 2022 , which is more than HTML, CSS, JS, and fonts combined! And while images do not block rendering (unless you do something silly ), it’s important to consider how we offer a reasonably pleasant experience while users are waiting for images to load.

Whenever you install your favorite MySQL server on a freshly created Ubuntu instance, you start by updating the configuration for MySQL, such as configuring buffer pool, changing the default datadir director, and disabling one of the most outstanding features – query cache. It’s a nice thing to do, but first things first. Let’s review the best practices we usually follow in Managed Services before using your MySQL server in production and stage env, even for home play purposes.

There is no doubt that the cloud has changed the way we run our software. Startups, for instance, can get started without buying expensive hardware and scale flexibly. Also, the cloud has enabled novel solutions such as serverless, managed Kubernetes and Docker, or edge functions. For a time, cloud-native applications seemed to be the way forward for most teams, big or small.

As MySQL database administrators, we are well aware of the significance of implementing a primary key within a table. Throughout our careers, most of us have encountered situations where the absence of a primary key has led to operational challenges. Primary keys play an indispensable role in sound database design by uniquely identifying individual rows and significantly enhancing data retrieval, manipulation, and overall system performance.

If your environment is like many others, it can often seem like your systems produce logs filled with a bunch of excess data. Since you need to access multiple components (servers, databases, network infrastructure, applications, etc.) to read your logs — and they don’t typically have any specific purpose or focus holding them together — you may dread sifting through them.

It is also known as web app pen-testing or security testing, which is an organized evaluation of a web application’s security to identify exposure and debility that could be exploited by malicious performers. The main goal of penetration testing is to proactively assess the security posture of a web application and identify potential vulnerabilities before attackers can exploit them.

In today's digital landscape, it's not just about building functional systems; it's about creating systems that scale smoothly and efficiently under demanding loads. But as many developers and architects can attest, scalability often comes with its own unique set of challenges. A seemingly minute inefficiency, when multiplied a million times over, can cause systems to grind to a halt.

The Modbus protocol is a communication protocol that allows devices to communicate over various types of media, such as serial lines and ethernet. It was developed in 1979 by Modicon, a company that produced Programmable Logic Controllers (PLCs), to enable these devices to communicate with each other. Modbus provides a messaging structure designed to establish master-slave communication between intelligent devices.

As a DBA, one of the very frequent tasks is to stop/start MySQL service for batching or some other activities. Before stopping MySQL, we may need to check if there are any active connections; if there are, we may need to kill all those. Generally, we use pt-kill to kill the application connections or prepare kill statements using the select queries.

ProxySQL is a high-performance SQL proxy, which runs as a daemon watched by a monitoring process. The process monitors the daemon and restarts it in case of a crash to minimize downtime. The daemon accepts incoming traffic from MySQL clients and forwards it to backend MySQL servers. The proxy is designed to run continuously without needing to be restarted.

In this blog post, we will discuss replacing a Mongo node. Consider a scenario when a node is going to be decommissioned for some reason or if a node’s data partition is almost full and not extendable. To avoid the disk getting full or decommissioned, we need to replace that node with a new node. Note : Make sure to have enough oplog window to cover this activity.
