The MySQL Development Team is thrilled to announce a new 8.0 Maintenance Release of MySQL Shell AdminAPI – 8.0.19!
This release sets the bar higher, by introducing a new integrated solution based on a very well known Replication technology – MySQL InnoDB ReplicaSet!…
Following MySQL InnoDB Cluster as our first, fully integrated MySQL High Availability solution based on Group Replication, MySQL Shell 8.0.19 includes MySQL InnoDB ReplicaSet which delivers another complete solution, this time based on MySQL Replication.
The basic idea for InnoDB ReplicaSet is to do the same for classic MySQL Replication as InnoDB Cluster did for Group Replication.…

In MySQL 8.0.17, we made an observation in the well-known TPC-H benchmark for one particular query. The query was executing 20% faster than in MySQL 8.0.16. This improvement is because of the “antijoin” optimization which I implemented. Here is its short mention in the release notes:
“The optimizer now transforms a WHERE condition having NOT IN (subquery), NOT EXISTS (subquery), IN (subquery) IS NOT TRUE, or EXISTS (subquery) IS NOT TRUE internally into an antijoin, thus removing the subquery.”…
For a long time, the only algorithm for executing a join in MySQL has been variations of the nested loop algorithm. With the release of MySQL 8.0.18, the server can now execute joins using hash join. This blog post will have a look at how it works, when it is used, and how it compares to the old join algorithms in MySQL in terms of performance.…
A user defined table and its corresponding index data, in InnoDB, is stored in files that have an extension .ibd. There are two types of tablespaces, general (or shared) tablespace and file-per-table. For shared tablespaces, data from many different tables and their corresponding indexes may reside in a single .ibd…
As an intro to his performance act, an “old school” entertainer Victor Borge once famously asked the audience: “Do you care for piano music?“, which was greeted by a crowd, only to be immediately followed by a self-ironic punch line – “Too bad.”…
MySQL 8.0.18 was just released, and it contains a brand new feature to analyze and understand how queries are executed: EXPLAIN ANALYZE.
EXPLAIN ANALYZE is a profiling tool for your queries that will show you where MySQL spends time on your query and why.…
The MySQL Development team is proud to announce a new version of the MySQL Shell with the following major improvements:
MySQL needs an SSL/TLS library. It uses it primarily to encrypt network connections, but also uses its various algorithms and random number generators.
OpenSSL is the golden standard when it comes to cross-platform open source SSL/TLS library that you use from C/C++.…
