Most often Database Systems outages happen due to user error and it is also the biggest reason for data loss / damage or corruption. In these type of failures, It is application modifying or destroying the data on its own or through a user choice. Hardware failure also contributes to database infrastructure crashes and corruption. To address these sort of data reliability issues, you must recover and restore to the point in time before the corruption occurred. Disaster Recover tools returns the data to its original state at the cost of any other changes that were being made to the data since the point the corruption took place. MinervaDB founder and Principal, hosted a webinar (Thursday, June 18, 2020 – 06:00 PM to 07:00 PM PDT) on MySQL backup strategies and tools addressing the topics below:

• Proactive MySQL DR – From strategy to execution
• Building capacity for reliable MySQL DR
• MySQL DR strategies
• MySQL Backup tools
• Managing MySQL DR Ops. for very large databases
• Testing MySQL Backups
• Biggest MySQL DR mistakes
• MySQL DR Best Practices and Checklist

(Thursday, June 18, 2020 – 06:00 PM to 07:00 PM PDT)

There can be several reasons for a MySQL database outage: hardware failure, power outage, human error, natural disaster etc. We may not be able prevent all the disaster from happening but investing on a robust disaster recovery plan is very important for building fault-tolerant database infrastructure operations on MySQL.  Every MySQL DBA is accountable for developing a disaster recovery plan addressing data sensitivity, data loss tolerance and data security. Join Shiv Iyer, Founder and Principal of MinervaDB to lean about the best practices for building highly reliable MySQL DR strategy and operations on Thursday, June 18, 2020 – 06:00 PM to 07:00 PM PDT. Building DR for a high traffic MySQL database infrastructure means deep understanding of multiple backup strategies and choosing optimal ones which are best suited for performance and reliability. Most of the data intensive MySQL infrastructure will have a combination of multiple backup methods and tools, In this webinar Shiv talks about his experiences in the past and present on building MySQL DR Ops, tools and zero tolerance data loss methods.

Join this webinar to learn more about:

• Proactive MySQL DR – From strategy to execution
• Building capacity for reliable MySQL DR
• MySQL DR strategies
• MySQL Backup tools
• Managing MySQL DR Ops. for very large databases
• Testing MySQL Backups
• Biggest MySQL DR mistakes
• MySQL DR Best Practices and Checklist

Recently I did a webinar on ” Building MySQL Database Infrastructure for Performance and Reliability ” , It was big success and thought will share the slides of webinar in this blog. I get lot of emails daily from Database Architects, DBAs, Database Engineers, Technical Managers and Developers worldwide on best practices and checklist to build MySQL for performance, scalability, high availability and database SRE, The objective of this webinar is to share with them a cockpit view of MySQL infrastructure operations from MinervaDB perspective. Database Systems are growing faster than ever, The modern datanomy businesses like Facebook, Uber, Airbnb, LinkedIn etc. are powered by Database Systems, This makes Database Infrastructure operationally complex and we can’t technically scale such systems with eyeballs. Building MySQL operations for web-scale means delivering highly responsive, fault-tolerant and self-healing database infrastructure for business. In this webinar we are discussing following topics:

• Configuring MySQL for performance and reliability
• Troubleshooting MySQL with Linux tools
• Troubleshooting MySQL with slow query log
• Most common tools used in MinervaDB to troubleshoot MySQL performance
• Monitoring MySQL performance
• Building MySQL infrastructure operations for performance, scalability and reliability
