MySQL curriculum: 4 modules over 4 days
Module 1 : Advanced MySQL Queries: Complex Joins, Subqueries, and Window Functions (practical exercises, initial optimization)
Discover multiple joins, correlated subqueries, and analytical functions like ROW_NUMBER in MySQL through exercises on real company datasets. Apply refactoring techniques to speed up slow queries, analyze execution plans with EXPLAIN, and produce performant reports. The trainer guides each participant on concrete cases, promoting immediate mastery of MySQL Workbench and command-line tools for increased productivity by the end of the day.
Module 2 : MySQL Administration: Server Configuration, Users, and Privileges (secure setup, automation scripts)
Dive into advanced MySQL server configuration via my.cnf, manage users with GRANT/REVOKE, and implement custom roles for multi-team environments. Practice creating partitioned databases, monitor error logs in real-time with tools like pt-query-digest, and automate tasks via cron jobs. Each session includes simulations of real incidents, with deliverables including ready-to-deploy scripts to strengthen data security and governance in the enterprise.
Module 3 : MySQL Performance and Tuning: Indexes, Cache, and Query Optimization (benchmarks, InnoDB tuning)
Optimize performance with composite, full-text, and spatial indexes in MySQL, configure the InnoDB buffer pool and query cache to scale under load. Perform before/after benchmarks with sysbench, analyze slow logs, and apply techniques like partitioning and basic sharding. Practical exercises on remote VMs simulate e-commerce traffic spikes, producing personalized tuning reports essential for reducing response times by 50% in professional production.
Module 4 : MySQL Security, Backup, and High Availability: Master-Slave Replication, Galera Cluster (disaster recovery plans)
Secure MySQL with SSL/TLS, UFW firewall, and audits via mysql_audit_plugin; set up asynchronous/synchronous replication and Galera clusters for zero-downtime. Practice logical and physical backups with mysqldump and XtraBackup, test full restorations on failure scenarios. Develop concrete DRP plans, including monitoring with Percona Toolkit, to ensure business continuity, with certifying deliverables validating skills in resilient architectures for data-driven companies.
