I’m happy to announce that a new version of the MariaDB Audit Plugin is available. Version 1.1.5 can be downloaded here. As you can see the Audit Plugin is available from SkySQL, who has developed the plugin.
However, now with the Audit Plugin being GA for a couple of months since 7th of November last year and customers using it in production, SkySQL has decided to contribute the Audit Plugin to the MariaDB project and I’m happy to tell you that starting from MariaDB versions 5.5.37 and 10.0.9 the Audit Plugin will be included by default. …

Lets start by considering a scenario where records are being inserted in a single auto-increment table via different nodes of a multi-master cluster. One issue that might arise is ‘collision’ of generated auto-increment values on different nodes, which is precisely the subject of this article.
As the cluster is multi-master, it allows writes on all master nodes. As a result of which a table might get same auto-incremented values on different nodes on INSERTs. This issue is discovered only after the writeset is replicated and that’s a problem!
Galera cluster suffers with the similar problem.
Lets try to emulate this on a 2-node Galera cluster :
1) On node #1:
MariaDB [test]> …

I’ve continued building on my MariaDB GIS and node.js example application that I wrote about two weeks back, https://blog.mariadb.org/node-js-mariadb-and-gis/. The application shows how to load GPX information into MariaDB, using some MariaDB GIS functionality, and making use of the node.js platform together with MariaDB’s non-blocking client.
With the GPX data converted into GIS points in the MariaDB database, I wanted to further expand a little on both the GIS aspect and also look at how some additional data could be shown in the application by using jQuery’s Ajax calls to update a piece of the web based application UI.

Today we upgraded the PCRE library bundled with MariaDB-10.0 to PCRE-8.34. This PCRE release includes some improvements, fixes for better stability and performance, and gives more compatibility with the Perl regular expressions.
I’d like to give details on the PCRE changes that especially affected MariaDB.
PCRE now includes support for [[:<:]] and [[:>:]] as used in the BSD POSIX library (written by Henry Spencer) to mean “start of word” and “end of word“, respectively. This is a good news for those project (like MariaDB) migrating from the Henry Spencer’s library to PCRE, as this non-standard syntax seemed to be used quite widely. …
