MySQL University: Low-Level Locking in mysqld and InnoDB

Happy New Year!

MySQL University sessions are starting again after the winter break.
This Thursday, we're beginning with Tim Cook's presentation on low-level
locking in mysqld and InnoDB – the good, the bad, and the ugly. Tim
works in the Performance and Applications Engineering department at Sun
Microsystems. Expect to get some deep insights into the inner workings
of the MySQL Server and InnoDB.

Tim's based in California, so note that his session will start rather
late for Europeans.

For MySQL University sessions, point your browser to this page:

http://webmeeting.dimdim.com/portal/JoinForm.action?confKey=mysqluniversity

You need a browser with a working Flash plugin. You may register for a
Dimdim account, but you don't have to.

MySQL University is a free educational online program for
engineers/developers. MySQL University sessions are open to anyone, not
just Sun employees. Sessions are recorded (slides and audio), so if you
can't attend the live session you can look at the recording anytime
after the session.
