Forthcoming webinar: MySQL Scalability – Typical Use Cases

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.

Forthcoming webinar: Strategies for scaling MySQL

On February 28 at 1pm EST I’ll be taking part in a webinar, sponsored by ScaleBase, on strategies for scaling MySQL.

Scalability is one of the primary drivers we’ve seen for database users considering alternatives to traditional relational databases. That could mean adopting an entirely new database for new projects or – more likely for existing applications – looking at various strategies for improving the scalability of an existing database.

During the webinar I will be joined by Doron Levari and Paul Campaniello, both from ScaleBase, which enables applications to scale without disruption to the existing infrastructure. We’ll be discussing, amongst other things:

  • Scaling-out your MySQL databases
  • New high availability strategies
  • Centrally managing a distributed MySQL environment
