User Group Presentations
Jacob Nikom presented "Using MySQL as active DBMS for monitoring applications" at the April 2007 Boston MySQL User Group, and also at the MySQL User Conference.
His abstract: "Monitoring applications periodically acquire data, store them in the database, and perform data analysis to detect the events in the environment. The applications repeatedly poll the database to check that new data has arrived. High poll rates waste significant resources, while low poll rates result in slow response and risk missing a sudden change. Both approaches lead to unsatisfactory performance of applications.
