With the increasing requirements of frequent application version iterations, DBAs are often requested to provide/generate DB’s with the most recent data for development/operations. Building a slave of production is one option, given this slave will have writes, it is going to break the replication from the master. MySQL on ZFS can take a snapshot at the file system level and reset the MySQL clone for every fresh data request. Will be Presenting the solution as below :

*Features of ZFS
*Setting up MySQL on ZFS with incremental snapshots
*Fork the on-demand dev/ops DB through Cloning ZFS

11:40 AM - MongoDB Sharded Cluster - How to design your topology ? - Vinodh Krishnaswamy ( Percona Support Engineer )

MongoDB Sharded Cluster is very well established to handle the huge data and also load across geographically. Sharding the data across the shards evenly or specific to region / data centres based on the application requests are important. But sometimes the sharded cluster setup is not well designed which leads for data distributed improperly across shards and so the application fails to serve the request within desired turnaround time. In this talk, we will see how to design your Shared Cluster topology to make most out of it.

Vinodh Krishnaswamy is a member of Support Team at Percona. Prior to joining Percona, he worked as a MySQL and MongoDB DBA in many companies such as iGate, Datavail, Sify Ltd.
