Webinar Replay (EMEA) – Data Streaming with Apache Kafka & MongoDB

MongoDB with Apache Kafka

The replay from the MongoDB/Apache Kafka webinar that I co-presented with David Tucker from Confluent earlier this week is now available:

The replay is now available: Data Streaming with Apache Kafka & MongoDB.

Abstract

A new generation of technologies is needed to consume and exploit today’s real time, fast moving data sources. Apache Kafka, originally developed at LinkedIn, has emerged as one of these key new technologies.

This webinar explores the use-cases and architecture for Kafka, and how it integrates with MongoDB to build sophisticated data-driven applications that exploit new sources of data.

Watch the webinar to learn:

  • What MongoDB is and where it’s used
  • What data streaming is and where it fits into modern data architectures
  • How Kafka works, what it delivers, and where it’s used
  • How to operationalize the Data Lake with MongoDB & Kafka
  • How MongoDB integrates with Kafka – both as a producer and a consumer of event – data

Upcoming webinar – SQL & NoSQL – the best of both worlds

MySQL Cluster LogoOn Thursday I’ll be hosting a webinar explaining how you can get the best from the NoSQL world while still getting all of the benefits of a proven RDBMS. As always the webinar is free but please register here.

Even if you can’t join the live webinar, it’s worth registering as you’ll be emailed a link to the replay as soon as it’s available.

Abstract

There’s a lot of excitement about NoSQL data stores, with the promise of simple access patterns, flexible schemas, scalability, and high availability. The downside comes in the form of losing ACID transactions, consistency, flexible queries, and data integrity checks. What if you could have the best of both worlds? Join this webinar to learn how MySQL Cluster provides simultaneous SQL and native NoSQL access to your data—whether it’s in a simple key-value API (memcached) or REST, JavaScript, Java, or C++. You will hear how the MySQL Cluster architecture delivers in-memory real-time performance; 99.999 percent availability; online maintenance; and linear, horizontal scalability through transparent autosharding.

MySQL Cluster 7.3 GA – webinar replay + Q&A now available

MySQL Cluster 7.3 logoIf you missed the recent MySQL Cluster 7.3 GA webinar then the replay is now available here.

In the webinar replay you can learn how MySQL Cluster 7.3 has delivered key features enabling the latest generation of web and mobile services to take advantage of high scalability on commodity hardware, SQL and NoSQL interfaces and 99.999% availability; these include:

  • Support for Foreign Key constraints – implemented to be as compatibile with InnoDB as possible
  • NoSQL JavaScript connector allowing native access from node.js applications to MySQL Cluster, bypassing the SQL layer
  • Browser-based Auto-Installer for fast configuration of production-grade clusters
  • Connection Thread Scalability for enhancing performance of each connection to the cluster by up to 8x
  • MySQL Server 5.6 support for improved performance and replication robustness

If you missed the live webinar then you missed your chance to ask your own questions (though feel free to post them as comments on this post) but here are some of the highlights from the Q&A:

  • How do the NoSQL APIs get the data – are there any relational joins behind the scenes to query the DB? It depends on the API – for example, Memcached and Node.js APIs act on a single table but others do allow joins – this is something that’s enabled by the NDB API (a C++ client library that encapsulates the ‘wire’ protocol to access the Data Nodes in order to read or write data).
  • I have an existing Joomdle based application. Would it work if I converted the tables to MySQL Cluster? If I understand correctly, you’re wondering whether an existing application that’s coded to work with InnoDB would now work with MySQL Cluster. We hope that we’ve got as close to that as possible but there’s always the possibility that some tweaks to the app or middleware will need to be made. I can’t comment specifically on Joomdle.
  • Is it possible to use the JavaScript API directly from the client (e.g. browser) directly rather than from server code running in Node.js? Not at present but would love to hear feedback on whether this is a common requirement and what the use cases would be.

Webinar: Delivering Scalable and Highly Available Session Management with MySQL Cluster

Update – the webinar replay is now available from http://www.mysql.com/news-and-events/on-demand-webinars/display-od-630.html?clusterdb

There is a free webinar today (31st May) covering the use of MySQL Cluster in session management – register for free here. The session starts at 9:00 am Pacific, 17:00 UK, 18:00 Central European Time.

As organizations seek to enhance their users’ web experience through personalization based on historic browsing and buying behaviors, session data is becoming more critical. Larger volumes of session data need to be managed and persisted in real-time, and so session management has become increasingly performance-intensive, while also demanding very high levels of availability to ensure a seamless customer experience. In these scenarios, it makes sense to evaluate the MySQL Cluster database.

This is a practical session, demonstrating how to manage PHP session data with MySQL Cluster, and includes:

  • Demands of session management
  • Brief review of MySQL Cluster architecture
  • Why MySQL Cluster is well placed to meet the demands from session management
  • Getting a session management solution up and running with PHP and MySQL Cluster
  • Performance optimization, including the latest enhancements to JOIN performance
  • Case studies
