Basic MySQL/MariaDB

Enable and start MariaDB # sudo systemctl enable mariadb # sudo systemctl start mariadb 3. Use MariaDB # mysql For my project, I am preparing a YouTube database, based on a dataseet that I got from Internet . Somehow, this page is no longer available, but I have made a copy of it in my github repository . At the MariaDB CLI, I created a database called "yt_data" with a DB user that has all privilege to this database. MariaDB [(none)]> create database yt_data; MariaDB [(none)]> grant all privileges on yt_data.* to 'db_user'@'localhost' identified by 'db_pass'; MariaDB [(none)]> flush privileges; In order to login to MariaDB with the user account I created to access to the database that I created, here's the command line. # mysql -u db_user -p yt_data Note, by default, MariaDB can be accessed witho...

NoSQL v SQL Part 1 - resource usage comparison

To skip my ranting, go to the actual topic, click here . Or you would like to jump to the summary directly. Recently I kept getting advertisement on migrating your SQL database to NoSQL. It's been 5 years since I last deal with database related work, excluding the CRUD on database task. NoSQL was quite new to me then, our platform main database backbone was Oracle DB. I am still not sure how or why we were convinced to have a new subsystem to use MongoDB, but that's the strength of developers, creating a good looking resume profile, and new task opportunities in the company. (I don't say new job opportunities, as we don't hire new DBA to support NoSQL. I forgot, and could be I was not informed, if the DBAs were sent for training to support this. :D) Based on my past experience and study, NoSQL was for a totally different use case. It is for non-structured database, simple design, and ...?? I just did a quick check on my profile, the my M101P: MongoDB for develope...

Working with github repository

It's been more than 5 years, I don't really work on any programming project. All my git/perl knowledge are gone. I was stunt a bit when looking back my documentation at Basic commands of git . I have cleaned up my github account, and start new repository to host the files and scripts on a database related research that I am working on. Spent some time to read some more git commands online, and the instruction on github, finally I manage to link my local repository with the github repository that I created. It took me quite sometime to get things right. :( Here's the step. 1. Create a github repository. 2. Create a local git repository. > git init 3. Add the github repository as our origin > git remote add origin https://github.com/<your github repository> 4. Clone the github repository to local (If you have files in the github repository already) > git clone https://github.com/<your github repository> 5. Create a branch in local > g...
