Schedule of the MySQL Developer Room at FOSDEM 2009 finalized and published
We've now concluded our call for papers for the MySQL Developer Room at FOSDEM 2009 in Brussels, Belgium, which will be open on Sunday, 8th of February from 09:00-17:00.
We received some excellent proposals and I am very excited about the schedule. Here's the quick summary of the talks:
- Vladimir Kolesnikov: Practicing DBA's Guide to the PBXT Storage Engine
- Kris Buytaert: Monitoring MySQL
- Geert Vanderkelen: MySQL Cluster
- Roland Bouman: MySQL 5.1 Plugins
- Kaj Arnö: MySQL, powering and using Social Networks
- Ewen Fortune: Percona MySQL patches and the XtraDB storage engine
- Giuseppe Maxia: Boost performance with MySQL 5.1 partitions
- Jurriaan Persyn: Database Sharding
See the Schedule page on the MySQL Forge for the detailed agenda, including the detailed session abstracts and speaker bios. These talks will soon appear in the general FOSDEM schedule, too. If you are interested in MySQL and any of the topics above, consider visiting us in Room AW1.126! Participation and attendance is totally free, though the organizers happily accept donations and sponsorships.
In addition to the Developer Room, MySQL will share a project desk with the OpenSolaris community. We are still looking for at least one more volunteer that would help us with manning the desk! If you are interested in helping out (2 hours at a minimum), please drop me a line!
