Presentation: Applied Partitioning and Scaling Your Database System Presentation [PPT]

Need to take your OLTP database and scale it 10 or 100 times and still have it perform well?

In this session you will learn how to take advantage of MySQL table partitioning to allow your database applications to scale in both size and performance. Examine practical ways to design your partitions to be reusable, efficient, and scalable. Understand the different ways to apply partitioning in MySQL 5.1, and walk through an example of hash partitioning that can be applied to most OLTP database applications.

Partitioning does not have to be limited to the traditional data warehouse – it’s directly applicable to your OLTP database.
