drizzle: something to watch about

http://drizzle.org/

 

From the site:

The Drizzle project is building a database optimized for Cloud and Net applications. It is being designed for massive concurrency on modern multi-cpu/core architecture. The code is originally derived from MySQL.

 

The Drizzle team is removing non-essential code, refactoring the remaining code, switching to a microkernel architecture (with well-defined APIs) and generally making Drizzle into a lean, mean query-running machine.

 

This is sort of an answer to the NoSQL movement...

MySQL 5.5 is entering beta; some new exciting stuff.

It‘s been a long time, from my point of view, since MySQL was out with something exciting.
Since version 5.0 back in 2005 we mainly saw bug fixes. Version 6.0 is in development for years and I am not sure if it heads anywhere
(see the following post). So the following new article from MySQL was very encouraging.

Where is my my.cnf file?

One of the most common questions I get is related to the location of the my.cnf file (or my.ini).

The question comes in few variants:

  1.  I am setting the option xyz in my.cnf but it does not seem to work?
  2.  I can set the option xyz using. /mysql --zyx=abc but when I am placing it in my.cnf it does not take any effect?
  3.  I have my.cnf in /etc and on in /usr/local/mysql/etc/  which one should I use?
  4.  Where the f@&% is my my.cnf file !?!?

In MySQL the answer for the above questions are a little confusing.

Is Oracle a good company to host Open Source like MySQL?

 I guess that since the acquisition of Sun, and as result MySQL AB, by Oracle every MySQL user had wonder if Oracle is a good hosting place to Open Source like MySQL.  Basically I am optimistic regarding the future of MySQL, but I think the community should stay alert and make sure Oracle know how match we care for MySQL.  So I am attaching a link to a post by Michael "Monty" Widenius, the creator of MySQL where he states his fears regarding the upcoming for MySQL and ask your support.
