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.

Preface

Using of Memcached


Memcached can be used at various stages in real-world applications. Its integration with MySQL makes it more comfortable for you to handle Big Data. Let's see the importance of using Memcached by understanding the different advantages.

Performance tuner

We always care about the performance while handing Big Data. We may have many questions before we start, such as how MySQL can be optimized from a performance perspective. We assume that managing Big Data with MySQL can impact performance as this is a pure structured database. But no! MySQL has a pretty simple way to handle Big Data by integrating Memcached and using it as a NoSQL database. This way, it will improve the performance latency and provide efficiency while managing Big Data with MySQL.

Memcached is one of the performance tuners for MySQL with Big Data. Memcached removes the SQL layer and directly accesses the InnoDB database tables. Hence, overhead operations like SQL parsing will no longer be executed, which really...
