        <title>A Distributed Lock in Go and MySQL, and Every Way the Session Can Betray You</title>
        <link href="https://tecnick.com/articles/nurago-mysqllock/"/>
        <content type="html">Some work must happen at most once across an entire fleet: a nightly reconciliation, an idempotent migration, a cache rebuild. When several instances of a service could each try to run it, you need a lock that spans processes, and an in-memory mutex cannot span processes. One tempting answer, if you already depend on MySQL, is its built-in named locks: GET_LOCK('key', timeout) grants a server-wide lock, RELEASE_LOCK('key') frees it, and you have avoided standing up a separate coordination service. The mysqllock package in nurago is under six hundred lines built on exactly that primitive. This post is about the gap between “call GET_LOCK” and “a lock I can reason about”, because a MySQL named lock has one property that quietly invalidates the naive version: it lives and dies with the  database session that holds it. What follows is a catalogue of the ways that session betrays you, and what the package does about each one.Computer Science</content>

        <content type="html">When a customer has 100+ RDS MySQL 8.0 instances that need to upgrade to 8.4, they face several challenges. The RDS MySQL Upgrade Assistant is an open-source tool that provides a 19-check SQL precheck engine with a remediation playbook, automated parameter and option group migration, Blue/Green and in-place upgrade orchestration with pre-switchover guardrail checks, and an application validation framework — all accessible via shell scripts or natural language through Kiro IDE/CLI.</content>

        <title>MySQL at a Crossroads: Oracle Control, Community Frustration, and MariaDB’s Rise</title>
        <link href="https://www.softwareplaza.com/it-magazine/mysql-at-a-crossroads:-oracle-control,-community-frustration,-and-mariadb%E2%80%99s-rise"/>
        <content type="html">For more than two decades, MySQL has been one of the pillars of modern web infrastructure. According to the Stack Overflow Developer Survey, it continues to rank among the most widely used databases worldwide. It powered early startups, supported the rise of PHP applications, and became a default choice for teams that needed a reliable relational database without enterprise complexity. Today, that comfortable position is under pressure.</content>

        <content type="html">DuckDB is renowned for its high query performance. However, due to DuckDB's relatively short development history, there aren't many articles that deeply analyze its various modules. This series of articles will dissect DuckDB from the source code level. This article, as the first in the DuckDB source code analysis series, will begin by introducing the file format, focusing on the storage of metadata, while subsequent articles will examine table data storage. All analysis in this article is based on DuckDB version 1.3.1 source code, and the TL;DR is found at the end of the article.</content>
