Deep Dive into MySQL InnoDB Cluster Read Scale-out Capabilities
Webinar Details
Duration: 60 mins
Webinar Description
MySQL's first Innovation Release is out, 8.1.0, and with it, we're introducing MySQL InnoDB Cluster Read Replicas.
The main purpose of secondaries on MySQL InnoDB Cluster is to be ready to take over when a primary member has failed (High Availability). This is done using MySQL Group Replication. Another commonly used purpose for the secondaries is to use them to offload read workloads away from the primary. With MySQL InnoDB Cluster Read Replicas, it's now possible to add asynchronous replicas to the database topology, to be used to offload read traffic away from primary or secondaries, to have dedicated read replicas, special purpose read replicas (e.g. for reporting), or to scale beyond what the secondaries can handle by adding multiple read replicas.
This talk will cover the read replicas functionality, showcase its usage in different database architectures, and include a demonstration on its setup and management.

Long before 'NoSQL' databases became all the rage, developers stored JSON in relational database tables. With the advent of the JSON data type, developers now have a powerful set of functions to update, retrieve, and filter data based on values stored in a JSON blob. In this session, we discuss storing JSON in our database and how the tools in MySQL can make that task a bit easier. We will start by discussing why you might want to store data as JSON instead of other storage methods. We will then talk about the different ways in which MySQL can help us achieve that goal and how we might go about deciding what method is best. We will see examples of using the JSON data type to store data in a 'normal' table and use SQL commands to retrieve, filter, and sort that data. We will also show how you can validate your JSON schema.
Integrated relational database management systems (RDBMS) are databases that ISVs (Independent Software Vendors) and OEMs (Original Equipment Manufacturers) ship with their products. These embedded databases are typically “invisible” to the end user. The standard functions for database management are handled either by the database itself or by the ISV’s own software via an application interface.
MySQL, the world’s most popular open-source database, has been named by Forrester and other analyst groups as a leader in the market for integrated and global database management. The reasons include the advantages that the open-source model offers OEMs and ISVs, numerous technical advantages of the MySQL database, very high usability, full technical support, a dual license model and very low total cost of ownership.
Join this webinar to take a detailed look at all the benefits MySQL offers OEMs and ISVs.
