Abstract

The much-anticipated ability to access MySQL data via a NoSQL solution has been realized. Using HandlerSocket, significant performance gains can be realized for certain workloads. In this session, I'll answer the following questions:

  • What is HandlerSocket?
  • Where does HandlerSocket fit in my application stack?
  • Why would I want to use HandlerSocket?
  • How do I use Handlersocket?

I'll walk through relevant configuration & tuning options, and at the end of the presentation attendees will be able to identify candidate use cases within their application to use HandlerSocket.
