The MariaDB Connection ID exists since long ago. So why bother about the Connection ID? Because it is interesting and you can do some interesting things with the Connection ID like tracking statements in your connections and find where they come from your application code.

The General Query Log in MariaDB is a Log (file or table) that logs every statement sent from the Application to the MariaDB Database Server from the Connect Command to the Quit Command. A simple example you can find here:

How to recover deleted tablespace?

oli.sennhauser@fromdual.com (Oli Sennhauser) — Fri, 14 Nov 2014 22:56:17 +0000

Sometimes, MySQL tablespace file(s) might be deleted by mistake, e.g. delete the shared tablespace (ibdata1) or an individual tablespace (table_name.ibd).

Impact of General Query Log on MySQL Performance

oli.sennhauser@fromdual.com (Oli Sennhauser) — Tue, 08 Apr 2014 11:19:06 +0000

Sometimes, it is required to enable the General Query Log (which is disabled by default). If the General Query Log is enabled the server writes to this log information when clients connect or disconnect, and each SQL statement received from the client.

MySQL Query Cache does not work with Complex Queries in Transactions

oli.sennhauser@fromdual.com (Oli Sennhauser) — Wed, 29 Jun 2011 13:28:27 +0000

We did recently a review of one of our customers systems and we found that the Query Cache was disabled even thought it had significant more read than write queries.
When we asked the customer why he has not enabled the Query Cache he mentioned a review that was done a few years ago and which stated that the Query Cache hit ratio was non optimal.
This was verified on a testing system which had the Query Cache enabled by accident.

MySQL Federated Storage Engine

oli.sennhauser@fromdual.com (Oli Sennhauser) — Sat, 13 Mar 2010 13:32:56 +0000

What is a Federated Table?

A Federated Table is a table which points to a table in an other MySQL database instance (mostly on an other server). It can be seen as a view to this remote database table. Other RDBMS have similar concepts for example database links.

We build a data warehouse from the General Query Log

oli.sennhauser@fromdual.com (Oli Sennhauser) — Wed, 31 Jan 2024 16:41:13 +0100

The design of a data warehouse differs from relational design. Data warehouses are often designed according to the concept of the star schema.
