MySQL Analysis: With an AI-Powered CLI Tool As DBAs with MySQL we often live on a Linux terminal window. We also enjoy free options when available. This post shows an approach that allows us to stay on our terminal window and still use an AI-powered tool.

Toying around with MariaDB : query cache editionMariaDB’s query cache , as explained here is a legacy memory-based mechanism which stores the results of SELECT queries to avoid recalculating them when identical queries are executed again. When a SELECT query is run, MariaDB first checks if the result already exists in the cache and returns it directly if found, which significantly improves performance for repetitive queries. The cache is automatically maintained ensuring data consistency in returned results.It is easy to setup with two simple parameters and an optional third to prevents some typos, untrimmed spaces and comments to get in the way, as follows :query_cache_type… Read more
