There have been many database infrastructure changes through Ning’s history since the company began in 2004. Our most recent, and hopefully final, database iteration is running on MySQL. Over the past year we’ve designed and implemented a stable and highly available MySQL environment. MySQL was chosen to reduce Ning’s total cost of ownership and increase overall availability to our customers, Network Creators and their members.

Led by Chris Schneider, Ning’s MySQL Architect, join us at this Ning Tech Talk as he explains how we implemented and currently maintain MySQL on the Ning Platform.

Pizza, beer and other refreshments will be served. We'll begin with a quick series of informal "Lightning Talks" -- guests can present active projects or interests they're working on. If you'd like to present, there's a spot to propose your topic when you RSVP. There will also be time to ask Ning's Engineering and Ops teams any burning questions you have! We look forward to seeing you at Ning HQ (http://maps.google.com/maps?f=q&source=s_q&hl=en&geocode=&q=285+Hamilton+Ave,+Palo+Alto,+CA+94301&aq=0&sll=37.0625,-95.677068&sspn=76.360484,74.882813&ie=UTF8&hq=&hnear=285+Hamilton+Ave,+Palo+Alto,+Santa+Clara,+California+94301&z=17) in downtown Palo Alto!
