The primary audience of this book are database professionals, but that’s not to say that other software professionals won’t be able to apply the advice in this book. This book is for everyone using MySQL – the catch here is a specific approach to the database management system as a whole. Instead of teaching you how to optimize database internals, this book tells you what you’re doing wrong first and then tells you how to optimize these things and secure them for the future.
This book will build a solid foundation around MySQL both for junior database administrators and for experienced DBAs alike – juniors will learn what not to do to a database to avoid problems, while seniors will be provided useful tips that will help them deal with issues in everyday work or corner cases that may occur in the future.
