DevConf 2017

Many sites need their employees to do more then one job - Programmer, DBA, SysAdmin. The more skills you have, the more you can contribute to the overall success of the site and improve your own marketability. Learn the basic commands of MySQL Server Administration that every SysAdmin should know.

Outline

The MySQL administration areas we will potentially go over (adjusted for timeslot and if troubleshooting talk also accepted):

• Access Control (2 stages, user accounts & passwords, GRANT/REVOKE)
• Metadata (SHOW and INFORMATION SCHEMA)
• Server State (option files, GLOBAL VARIABLES/STATUS, PROCESSLIST, InnoDB, Monitoring)
• Logs (Error, Slow Query, General, Binary)
• Backups (basics on types and methods)
