Please gentlemen,

It is a valid question if a somewhat hackneyed one.

MySQL continues to live on in many forms but obviously, would have to lose
some ground in the face of the NoSQL solutions which are in vogue. The
concepts of relational data are too powerful to stop being relevant but it
is not longer the universal data store it once was seen as (The aplies to
RDBMS in general).

Let's not ugly up this list (which I have been on for an absurdly long
time) with flame wars.  It certainly does not have the bandwidth it once
did, but flames are a terrible way to boost it.

Busy writing WAP backends powered out of MySQL and Oracle, if I remember 
correctly :-) But, indeed, not on this list; and if you were here back then I 
may have severly misjudged you. My apologies for that.

However, I find it hard to believe that you are suggesting that MySQL is in a 
worse state now than it was back then, let alone that there were more users 
back then than now...

What exactly do you see going wrong under Oracle stewardship? There haven't 
been this many bugs fixed and new features implemented in years.

MySQL dying?

2012-12-04 Thread Anthony Pace
I have heard that due to Oracle taking over, the OS community is 
shifting to other type of DB's .


Any thoughts?

RE: MySQL dying?

2012-12-04 Thread Rick James
Oracle is investing a lot into improvements in MySQL and releasing most of it 
in the Community version.  

Meanwhile, MariaDB is a serious contender.  It is a drop-in replacement for 
MySQL.  And Percona's Xtradb (included in MariaDB) is a drop-in replacement for 
InnoDB.  If Oracle did something nasty, there are exit strategies that do not 
involve porting to some other RDBMS.

I say don't worry.

Are u kidding?

Mysql is dead easy and damn good... obviously it has its perks, but any
database engine has them... (I'm looking at you DB2)...

There has been a lot of improvements lately, I feel that mysql is moving
much more faster under oracle umbrella than when it was alone...

Replication... omg, replicacion is DEAD easy! so easy, that usually you
doublecheck things just because you are unsure that is SO easy...

Partitioning, views, storeprocedures, explain and analise are good
enough... it simply work... I never, ever had a database corruption (I'm
looking at to you Mssql!) ...

I have tables with more the 5millon rows, noproblem, I have a table with
more than 40 millon rows... and of course I have troubles, but always,
always been resolved...

Mysql is... wonderful, it just works... You want it to work as a storage
with out integrity?, done.. with integrity? done, replicaion, encryption,
secure connections, partition... name your feature!

die.Wish I was kidding :-)

Re: MySQL dying suddenly

2002-04-16 Thread Rafal Jank

 apparently an innocent query followed by an update. The binary package
 is statically linked ad it started happening after we started using
 InnoDB. The version is, actually, 3.23.49a-Max.
 
 Although I can't reproduce a better test case than this, I'm sure that
 you can check the binaries you have compiled statically there at MySQL
 AB and reproduce this bug with similar situations. The problem has this
 pattern: it is always a query in a MyISAM table followed by an update.
I have a similar problem - very similar queries, byt the table is of InnoDB
type.

We have just discovered a bug with 3.23.49a binaries - there is a small 
memory overrun if you have services with names less than 5 characters in 
/etc/nsswitch.conf that are not dns. The most common ones would be db and 
nis. So to begin troubleshooting, make sure you do not have db, nis, or any 
other short-character service names in /etc/nsswitch.conf so as not to 
trigger this bug.

If your /etc/nsswitch.conf is not problematic, the next step in 
troubleshooting the problem is to check if temp_vg_olhados does not get 
corrupted at any point.
