A big thanks to everyone who attended. The recording of webinar (with sound) is now available on MySQL website. Also thanks to Jimmy Guerrero, Rich Taylor, Alex Roedling, Edwin DeSouza and Sun/MySQL for inviting me for the second time to give this webinar.

After watching/listening to the webinar, in case you have any questions or suggestions for my next webinar, please feel free to email them to me at fmashraqi [at] yahoo dot com.

The description of the webinar follows:

Memcached for MySQL: Advanced Use Cases

Join us for this in depth technical webinar where memcached guru Frank Mashraqi of Fotolog will demonstrate several use cases on how to leverage memcached to increase the performance and scalability of MySQL driven web sites and applications. Memcached is the open source distributed memory caching system used by some of the biggest websites in the world like, YouTube, Facebook, LiveJournal and Wikipedia. Use cases explored include: non-deterministic caches, deterministic caches, a replacement/add-on for file system caches and more. We will also provide an overview of memcached production support available with a MySQL Enterprise subscription. The presentation will conclude with a question and answer period where you can "ask the expert" about the technical details of memcached. Attendees will also receive a technical white paper.

Memcached Webinar: Advanced Use Cases

Today at 1PM EST I will be presenting the second part of Memcached Webinar for Sun/MySQL. Like the first memcached webinar, this will focus on memcached use cases but it will be more technical.

Slides from my Memcached Webinar - 560+ registrants

Today, I presented my memcached webinar which was hosted by MySQL/Sun. There were more than 560+ users who registered for the webinar. The topic of the webinar was Designing and Implementing Scalable Applications with Memcached and MySQL.

The recording and slides from the webinar are now available for download:

• Memcached webinar recording ( you'll need Webex player to view the recording )
• memcached webinar slides

The call volume was quite high. I had to wait about 7-8 minutes before I could join as a panelist. I don't know why WebEx started using a live operator to verify users instead of using an automated system. That created quite a bottleneck and several users had to wait before they got connected. This is not something I expected from Webex. My apologies to all users who experienced connectivity issues. Thanks to everyone who attended and sent feedback.

Overall, the webinar went great. Monty Taylor, my fellow panelist did a great job. He, however, had a mishap and his line dropped. Jimmy Guerrero then picked from that point on. Upon reconnecting Monty generously answered questions of the attendees. Many thanks, Monty and Jimmy!
