Scaling MySQL with Python

Explore MySQL scaling techniques using Python in this EuroPython 2015 conference talk. Gain insights into MySQL replication architecture and discover Python utilities released by MySQL, including pure-python drivers, mysql-utilities for replication, management, and failover, and fabric for scaling, sharding, and provisioning new servers. Learn to create resilient configurations quickly and use mysql-fabric to build highly available infrastructures. Additionally, see how to implement a fabric provider for provisioning new databases via Docker. Suitable for those with basic database knowledge, including transactions and replication concepts, with MySQL-specific topics briefly introduced during the presentation.
