InnoDB Internals: InnoDB File Formats and Source Code Structure http://forge.mysql.com/wiki/InnoDB_Internals:_InnoDB_File_Formats_and_Source_Code_Structure
This Thursday (October 1st, 14:00 UTC - one hour later than usually), Calvin Sun will give a session on InnoDB Internals: InnoDB File Formats and Source Code Structure. The InnoDB storage engine provides transactions, row-level locking, and automatic crash recovery. Its on-disk files play a pivotal role for those key features. This presentation describes how on-disk files are structured, how compressed tables are organized, and how long variable-length columns are stored. As we develop new features, it is inevitable for file format changes. We will explain how the new file format management works in the InnoDB Plugin. This talk also covers InnoDB source code structure. 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. (Dimdim is the conferencing system we're using for MySQL University sessions. It provides integrated voice streaming, chat, whiteboard, session recording, and more.) 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. Here's the schedule for the upcoming weeks: * October 8: Building MySQL Releases on Unix (Jörg Brühe) * October 15: The Spider Storage Engine (Giuseppe Maxia) * October 22: Dual Master Setups With MMM (Arjen Lentz) * October 29: MySQL scalability on SPARC & INTEL X5500 (Nehalem) (Benoit Chaffanjon) * November 12: Gearman for MySQL (Giuseppe Maxia) * November 19: memcached Functions for MySQL (UDFs) (Patrick Galbraith) * December 3: Practical Full-Text Search in MySQL (Bill Karwin) The schedule is not engraved in stone at this point.
