
Database (Schema)

Tablespace / Data File

Table / Column

Index

View

Trigger

Stored Procedure

Stored Function

User Defined Function (UDF)
No Sequences
No Snapshots
No Synonyms

Version 1.2
Users

There is no concept of user ownership within MySQL

All objects are part of a database (or 'schema')

Users only have object privileges assigned to them

Version 1.2

Table Name is case sensitive (by default)

Reserved Words are permitted (appropriately quoted)

Version 1.2
Indexes

Default Index type is BTREE

Memory has HASH & BTREE Indexes

MyISAM has a FULLTEXT Index

Version 1.2
Views

Updatable and nonupdatable views supported

view and table names must be unique

DEFINER clause allows view to run as the calling user,
or another defined user

View restrictions

cannot contain a subquery in the FROM clause.

cannot refer to system or user variables.

cannot refer to prepared statement parameters.

Within a stored routine, the definition cannot refer to routine
parameters or local variables.

Version 1.2
Views

View restrictions (cont)

Any table or view referred to in the definition must exist.
However after creation, underlying objects can be dropped or
modified. View is not invalidated, but will throw error on usage.

The definition cannot refer to a TEMPORARY table

You cannot create a TEMPORARY view.

The tables named in the view definition must already exist.

You cannot associate a trigger with a view.

View algorithms

MERGE

TEMPTABLE

UNDEFINED

Supports WITH CHECK OPTION

Do not support Materialized Views

Version 1.2
Triggers


DEFINER clause allows stored procedure to run as the
calling user, or another defined user

No packages support

No anonymous blocks

No concept of dependency within MySQL

Stored procedures are not required for high
performance within MySQL

Version 1.2
User Defined Functions (UDF)

Added as Object Files

mysql> select logger('logging from ' + version());

INFORMATION_SCHEMA Examples
Table Disk Size for given schema
select table_name, table_rows, avg_row_length,
data_length/1024/1024 as data_mb,
index_length/1024/1024 as index_mb
from information_schema.tables
where table_schema='dbname'
order by 4 desc;

Version 1.2

SELECT TABLE_SCHEMA, SUM((DATA_LENGTH + INDEX_LENGTH) /
(1024 * 1024)) AS SIZE_MB FROM
INFORMATION_SCHEMA.TABLES
GROUP BY TABLE_SCHEMA ORDER BY SIZE_MB DESC
SELECT ROUTINE_TYPE, ROUTINE_NAME FROM
INFORMATION_SCHEMA.ROUTINES WHERE
ROUTINE_SCHEMA='dbname';
SELECT
TRIGGER_NAME,EVENT_MANIPULATION,EVENT_OBJECT_TABLE,
ACTION_STATEMENT FROM INFORMATION_SCHEMA.TRIGGERS WHERE
TRIGGER_SCHEMA='dbname';
SELECT CONCAT('DROP TABLE ',table_name,';')
INTO OUTFILE '/sql/drop_tables.sql'
FROM INFORMATION_SCHEMA.TABLES WHERE TABLE_SCHEMA =
'dbname';

Version 1.2

SELECT s.schema_name, CONCAT(IFNULL(ROUND((SUM(t.data_length)+
       SUM(t.index_length))/1024/1024,2),0.00),'Mb')
total_size,  CONCAT(IFNULL(ROUND(((SUM(t.data_length)
+SUM(t.index_length))SUM(t.data_free))/1024/1024,2),
0.00),'Mb') data_used,
CONCAT(IFNULL(ROUND(SUM(data_free)/1024/1024,2),0.00),'Mb')
data_free,
IFNULL(ROUND((((SUM(t.data_length)+SUM(t.index_length))
SUM(t.data_free))/((SUM(t.data_length)
+SUM(t.index_length)))*100),2),0) pct_used,
COUNT(table_name) total_tables
FROM information_schema.schemata s
LEFT JOIN information_schema.tables t ON s.schema_name =
t.table_schema
WHERE s.schema_name != 'information_schema'
GROUP BY s.schema_name  ORDER BY pct_used DESCG
