All, We're pleased to host two of Sun/MySQL premier technical team members for a NYPHP Special Presentation, November 12th. We'll put the announcement out this week, but first you need to pick which presentation should be given - these are technical/overview presentations.
These are the options (some have descriptions for greater clarity) - a simple plus one for ONE presentation that you'd like is all that's needed. Please provide feedback ASAP so that we can schedule things correctly. -- Writing Tag systems in PHP/MySQL, that scale to memcached, with XDebug for Profiling; Writing a social application such as forums, messaging or guilds with PHP/MySQL and what happens when a million people show up on opening day. -- MySQL 5.1 features -- Using MySQL partitions in practice -- MySQL Proxy wizardry -- Testing with MySQL Sandbox MySQL Sandbox is a tool that can install a side instance of MySQL in a few seconds, efficiently, precisely, and without influencing existing installations. Testing new versions can be tedious and error prone. Using MySQL Sandbox, the process of testing single servers or replication systems can be greatly simplified. -- MySQL Community How To A sort of movie of the ways a community member can participate to the MySQL project, with a step-by-step illustration of what is available and how to use it, from getting help with forums to contributing code, passing through events, reporting bugs, publishing projects. -- Creative cross-language programming with MySQL Although MySQL is sometimes perceived as a minimalist DBMS, it has a huge potential for creative hacks. The Federated and Blackhole engine, MySQL Proxy, user variables, and some other hooks allow the imaginative developer to achieve impressive results independently from the client's programming language. -- Advanced Lua programming for MySQL Proxy Having learned the basic of Lua programming for Proxy, some advanced topics can be covered. This session will explain how to tackle some difficult tasks with the Proxy, organizing your work so that you can create a new script in minutes: -- using a script loader to change script at run time, without restarting; -- creating new commands -- creating quick methods for returning datasets and error messages to the client; -- Executing multiple commands in the Proxy, while returning only one result to the client -- chaining more scripts to extend Proxy feature --- Hans Zaunere / Managing Member / New York PHP www.nyphp.org / www.nyphp.com _______________________________________________ New York PHP Community Talk Mailing List http://lists.nyphp.org/mailman/listinfo/talk NYPHPCon 2006 Presentations Online http://www.nyphpcon.com Show Your Participation in New York PHP http://www.nyphp.org/show_participation.php
