And that’s the data day, today.

I’ll be taking part in a webinar on Thursday, September 19th at 1pm EST to discuss MySQL scalability and typical use-cases.

How can you scale MySQL-based applications to handle more users, more data and more transactions? How can you build scalability into new app design? How can you scale existing apps without disrupting your MySQL ecosystem?

Specifically I will be discussing:
– MySQL scalability limits with existing In-house & Amazon hosted apps
– Building new apps with MySQL scalability in mind.
– Getting beyond DIY sharding limitations

I will be joined by Doron Levari, from ScaleBase, who will discuss how ScaleBase enables applications to leverage multiple MySQL instances working together as one.
