Table partitioning is a concept which allows data to be stored in multiple locations on one or more disks and access to the data is through SQL queries. The way data is stored and retrieved is invisible to the end user. Mysql allows the user to select the rules based on which data would be spread over multiple partitions in a table. Mysql supports horizontab partitioning whereby the rows of a

I would be discussing mysql storage engines/table types over here. MySQL supports pluggable storage engine architecture, which means that you can create your own storage engine and ask MySQL to store data for you using the sql query syntax defined in MySQL. Sounds cool right, but lets not dig that deep now. Lets first see what types of storage engines does MySQL provide and their benefits/

How do you handle emotions? What do you do when you feel depressed? You may feel as if there is no goal in your life. You feel lost. You dont know what to do. And to top it up, you are not absolutely sure about the reason for all these emotions/feelings. You try to find a reason. Maybe your friend did something wrong. No, but he/she was right in her own way. What he/she did is in no way wrong

Why are people jealous of each other? Why do people have an ego? Why do people have an attitude? Why can't people consider each other as equal? Why are there caste restrictions? Why is a girl child not considered as equal to a boy child? Why is there more than 50% reservation for SC/ST/OBC people? Why do we give and take dowery? Why are most of the cops corrupt? Why is there crime in society?

Censorship, or limiting access to certain specific data is a big drawback for democracy. It limits freedom of speech, thought, expression, the basic fundas of democracy. We say india is a democratic country. Why? There is censorship in almost all movies, in addition to rating given by the censor board. Well forget that. But why is my blog not opening up since yesterday. I had to do some

How is scoring of a document calculated in lucene? Well, first of all what is soring and what does it do. Scoring is a factor which decides the order by which documents are returned after a search is done using lucene. Something like "order by relevance". If we provide an order by/sort by clause in the search query, then ordering is done on this. Else, ordering is done on the score of the

Finally got some way of connecting other blogs to my site. Editing the template every time i want to add some blog to my site is a very tedious job... blogrolling is cool. The "i am online" link from yahoo is a bit buggy though. Shows me online even at times when i am NOT. Seems that yahoo is having problems with its database/messaging systems.

Long time again and no blogs...And i have my excuses ready... Well firstly there was nothing good enough to write...bad excuse!!, i could have written about my bike ride from noida to greater noida.

Lets start from the ground up. I would create a hypothetical situation and try to figure out the amount of tax i pay per month. Well suppose i have a taxable salary of 10,000 per month and since i am a well paid indian, i would come in the 30% tax bracket. So i would pay up 3,000/- as tax per month. Next, except home cooked food, everything else is taxed at 12.25%. Which means that if i spend

Have not been able to write anything for a long time...Well, i had been a bit buzy with unwanted work... Had to go home last weekend on an urgent work. Was unable to get any reservations in the Indian Railways, and so had to take a flight - "go-air" home.

What is this? How can a slave have multiple masters? Well the architecture is not what the name implies. A slave can have only one master. But here we are going to create a loop between slaves and masters, also known as Circular replication. Lets take 3 machines.

Here is the comparison between mysql fulltext and lucene search engines. On the forefront the only thing that distinguishes one from another is ==> speed of fulltext search in lucene is much faster as compared to mysql ==> lucene is much more complex to use as compared to mysql. In mysql, you can simply mark an index on a text/varchar column as fulltext, and your work is done. All you need to

Finally i was able to do a benchmark of the 3 search engines - mysql fulltext search - lucene search engine - sphinx www.sphinxsearch.com I came across sphinx while doing a search on full text search engines. It is a very good engine. Few points regarding sphinx -> Very simple to configure, create index and search -> Very easy to integrate with php and mysql. APIs for the same are also

I have read many books till now. Lots and lots. Started off in my 5th standard with lots of "famous 5's" and then in my high school days went to "hardy boys" and "nancy drew" and "the three investigators - alfred hitchcock". I started off with "hardy boys" in my 8th and by 9th the library was out of "hardy boys" i have not read. I used to read 2 books in a weeks time. Loads of stuff. People used

Went down for swimming yesterday at kendriya vidyalaya near adobe in noida. Had a great time for an hour. After a long long time i went for swimming and swam in water worth swimming. Had a chance to swim sometime back when we were on a picnic to some resort (dont remember the name). But the water there was so shallow that it was difficult to remain submerged in it... I love to swim. Learned
