Schwartz, a software engineer, et al. instruct readers on the
advanced techniques of MySQL 5.0 and 5.1, explaining how to design
schemas, indexes, and queries, and advanced features. They overview its
architecture, then discuss benchmarking and profiling, improving its
performance, security, and other topics. This edition has been revised
and expanded, and emphasizes performance and reliability. It covers
storage engines, new features, building large scalable systems, new
options for backups and replication, and the optimization of advanced
querying features. Four appendices have been added, on transferring
large files, using EXPLAIN and Sphinx, and debugging locks.
