Frequently Asked Questions
What was Ivinco's Percona Live 2011 talk about?

What is Percona Live?
Percona Live is an intensive technical conference focused on open-source databases — MySQL, PostgreSQL, MongoDB, and related tools. Sessions are 100% technical, covering performance tuning, high availability, monitoring, and database operations at scale. It brings together database professionals, developers, and consultants from around the world.
How does Sphinx Search work with MySQL at scale?
Sphinx Search indexes data from MySQL and serves full-text search queries with sub-second response times, even across tens of terabytes. The architecture separates the search workload from the database, so MySQL handles writes and transactional queries while Sphinx handles search. This division lets each component scale independently and keeps the overall system performant.
