We read this numerous times before finally creating our own sharding system over bare MySQL
- ericbarrett 4y agoFB's MySQL team gave a tech talk on sharing circa 2011. A couple of bright engineers from Pinterest were there and asked a lot of great questions. A year or two later the same gentlemen presented their own MySQL infra at the Percona (?) conference. They'd used that talk as a springboard for their own design, which was quite clever and clearly integrated some of their unique business needs. A decade later, I still remember how good their presentation was! I wish I could remember the engineers' names.

- ericbarrett 4y agoYes! Marty Weiner and Yashh Nelapati. Appears to be a different talk though. Nice find.
- phendrenad2 4y agoGod, I'm building a big MySQL schema right now, and I wish I had read this months ago! Too late for me now. Oh well, next project!
