MySQL 8 for Big Data

By: Shabbir Challawala, Chintan Mehta, Kandarp Patel, Jaydip Lakhatariya

Overview of this book

With organizations handling large amounts of data on a regular basis, MySQL has become a popular solution to handle this structured Big Data. In this book, you will see how DBAs can use MySQL 8 to handle billions of records, and load and retrieve data with performance comparable or superior to commercial DB solutions with higher costs. Many organizations today depend on MySQL for their websites and a Big Data solution for their data archiving, storage, and analysis needs. However, integrating them can be challenging. This book will show you how to implement a successful Big Data strategy with Apache Hadoop and MySQL 8. It will cover real-time use case scenario to explain integration and achieve Big Data solutions using technologies such as Apache Hadoop, Apache Sqoop, and MySQL Applier. Also, the book includes case studies on Apache Sqoop and real-time event processing. By the end of this book, you will know how to efficiently use MySQL 8 to manage data for your Big Data applications.

Transactions in MySQL 8


Transaction is a logical unit of one or more Insert, Update, and Delete statements. Transaction is useful when you want to do multiple operations on the database. Either all the changes that are successful would be committed, unsuccessful ones would be undone, or errors generated during execution would perform transactions rolled back. The InnoDB storage engine supports the rollback of transactions. The goal of the InnoDB storage model is to combine the best properties of a multi-versioning database with two-phase locking. InnoDB performs locking at the row level and runs queries as non-locking for consistent reads by default for better performance and integrity of data.

Let's take an example to understand where transaction is useful. Consider a banking database. Suppose a bank customer want to transfers money from his account to another account. Generally, SQL statements will be divided into five parts using a transaction:

  • Transaction start
  • Debit from customer account...
