Which tool to use for developing Pl/Sql on MySQL?

2010-07-15 Thread alba.albetti
Hi,
beginning to work with MySQL I've found there exist two similar tools for 
browsing the db and developing in Pl/Sql and they are SQL-Front and MySQL Query 
Browser. Fot not wasting time in learning both can anyone tell me which of 
these is generally used wordwide? So I make practice with the most used one.

Thanks in advance!

Why is MySQL always linked to Php?

2010-07-15 Thread alba.albetti
Browsing the Web I've seen that usually companies look for developers working 
on MySQL and Php. Why are the two things linked? I mean I've not found any 
requests for just a MySQL developer or DBA (as for example it happens for 
Oracle), but it's always requested a MySQL/Php expert.
I ask for it 'cause I've always been a developer/DBA on RDBMS (Oracle and DB2) 
and as I've been learning MySQL for few weeks, I'd like to know whether and why 
it's so important to learn Php as well. It would be so difficult to find a job 
as MySQL developer/DBA without knowing Php as well.
Thanks!

How to define the initial space for a table

2010-07-14 Thread alba.albetti
Is it possible in MySQL to define the initial space that the table is going to 
use and the space for its growth? I usually work on Oracle where the syntax is:

create table MYTABLE
(...fields...)
tablespace MYTABLESPACE
(initial 2M
next 1M);

that means Oracle reserves a data block of 2Mb for the table and where and 
whether the table will grow, it will allocate more block of 1Mb in the 
tablespace.
How does MySQL behave about that? By the way is there any Manual where it's 
explained how MySQL manage tablespaces, datafiles, ...?
Thanks!

How to become a DBA on MySQL

2010-07-13 Thread alba.albetti
Hi,
I'd like to know which are the main tasks for a DBA, so in addition of the 
on-line tutorial of MySQL, is there anyone telling me whether there exists some 
tutorial (better if in PDF) where it's possible to undestand and learn all you 
need for managing the MySQL DB as DBA? I mean I'd like to read something 
explaining what are datafiles, tablespaces, ... and what usually a DBA is asked 
to do (creating databases, starting up and shutting down the database, managing 
the database's storage structures, making database backups and performing 
recovery, monitoring and tuning performance, ...) In other words I'd like to 
read how to manage a DB as DBA, because I've always worked only as developer 
and not as DBA.
Thanks!

How to watch stored procedures

2010-04-09 Thread alba.albetti
Since I work on MySQL by using phpMyAdmin, is there anyone saying to me if and 
how it's possibile to see the code of a stored procedure that I've created? For 
example on Oracle I use sql-developer but with phpMyAdmin is it possible to see 
the whole code of a procedure or of a trigger after creating it?

Thanks!
