Re: Recommendation on god MySQL books
I really like the Certification Study Guide we just ordered last week. Great info that I'd wish I had when I started. I have no plans to take the test, but I love the way the info is presented and the questions at the end help ensure I "got it."

Re: Recommendation on god MySQL books
Get the recently published book from Jeremy Zawodny. It's excellent. Very easy to understand and goes through all the admin stuff. It has a chapter dedicated to replication and explains in simple concise steps how to set up replication. It demonstrates many different types of replication configurations from simple master-slave to multi-master/multi-slave configurations. It also has excellent material on backup strategies and much more. The book is called "High Performance MySQL" and published by O'Reilly . really great book. I bought mine on Amazon. It is aimed at intermediate to advanced users. Read the Amazon comments and feedback for more details. -Kieran Config = OS X 10.3.4 / Java 1.4.2 / WO 5.2.3 / XCode v1.2 / MySQL 4.0.20 / Connector-J 3.0.11 Blog: http://webobjects.webhop.org/ On Jun 17, 2004, at 1:44 PM, Bartis, Robert M (Bob) wrote: I'm looking for suggestions on books that would help me to improve my understanding of MySQL operations, admin operations, replication etc. I'm new to MySQL and am about to embark on supporting a database for my team to use in recording test results.

Re: Recommendation on god MySQL books
When I first started, I bought MySQL by Paul DuBois. It covers the basics to admin responsibilities and preventive maintenance. But, you may want to search the archives, this question has been asked many times before.

Re: Recommendation on god MySQL books
God doesn't use MySQL (I think he leans towards Postgres - he needs views and triggers). But if you are interested in MySQL, Paul DuBois's book, "MySQL, Second Edition" is a great reference. If you need more insight into performance tuning, then Jeremy Zawodny and Derek Balling's book, "High Performance MySQL", can be very helpful. Both are up to date.

RE: Recommendation on god MySQL books
I think Wiley´s Mysql enterprise solutions could be a good option. It´s a great book and have an entire chapter covering replication -Mensaje original- De: Bartis, Robert M (Bob) [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Enviado el: Jueves, 17 de Junio de 2004 11:44 a.m. Para: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Asunto: Recommendation on god MySQL books I'm looking for suggestions on books that would help me to improve my understanding of MySQL operations, admin operations, replication etc. I'm new to MySQL and am about to embark on supporting a database for my team to use in recording test results.
