The buzz of the week is all about books. The second edition of High Performance MySQL has just hit the shelves. In addition to being a complete rewrite of the first edition, this is a sort of community book, where the authors gathered together the official tools and the ones available in the community to explain how to make MySQL fly. Many topics were submitted for public discussion. It is also the first time that an author has explained in public how to write it. The other second edition is a reprint of the MySQL Cluster certification guide. Noticed anything peculiar in the cover? Yes! It's a Sun book. This is actually the very first book to be published through Sun's new print-on-demand partner, Vervanté. In other words, Sun's first Vervanté book is a book on MySQL! |

Contrary to mounting rumors, MySQL is not closing or removing MySQL Cluster. The reason for the cluster applications being missing in the latest 5.1 binaries is a split release model, as Kaj Arnö explains. The almost simultaneous announcement of Cluster 6.2 release is a confirmation that the Cluster is alive and kicking. |

To reinforce the Cluster buzz, another blogging entity has surfaced. The MySQL Telecom Team is mostly involved in Cluster technologies, although not exclusively. | |

Kedar has a blog on GlassFish cluster administration (domain, DAS, Node Agents, Instances, ...). This should come handy to people looking at understanding when synchronisation actually happen with the DAS (Domain Administration Server) which is where the centralized repository sits. We often claim to have BEA's features at JBoss' price. This centralized cluster management is certainly one such feature. |
