I was born to sail. The sea teaches lessons that reach far beyond the horizon: respect the sea, trust your crew, adapt to changing conditions, and always keep your course, even when the winds shift. Today, I’m excited to begin a new voyage as Chief Strategy Officer at @proxysql . Every journey begins with a change of course. Sometimes it means discovering new waters. Sometimes it means sailing familiar seas with a new crew. This is one of those voyages. I’ve spent more than three decades navigating the world of open source databases, infrastructure, high availability, and the incredible communities that have shaped our industry. The waters are familiar, but the opportunities ahead are anything but. I’m looking forward to helping chart the next course for ProxySQL, working alongside an exceptional team, and continuing to contribute to the open source ecosystem that has given me so much throughout my career. Fair winds to my new crew, @rene_cannao and @JesmarCannao Let’s sail ⛵ ⚓ 🔱 #ProxySQL #Leadership #OpenSource #Databases #MySQL #PostgreSQL #CloudNative #oracleacepro #mysqlrockstar @svrubato

Who else is going to PGConf.EU in Valencia this week? I’d love to meet people working on PostgreSQL infrastructure: managing connections, deciding where queries go, blocking unwanted queries, keeping traffic under control. Let’s find time for a chat. #PGConfEU

Merhaba Türkiye! 🇹🇷 VictoriaMetrics is heading to @devopsdaysist! 🚀 Join our DevRel, Diana Todea, for her talk: “#Observability's Sixth Sense: Detecting Anomalies in Metrics”. 🕐 11:50 AM CEST  📍 Dedeman Bostanci Hotel & Convention Center hubs.li/Q04zxF7S0 In this talk, we look at anomaly detection as a complementary way of working with #metrics. Instead of relying on predefined limits, anomaly detection focuses on identifying behavior that deviates from what is normally observed over time. Come meet the VictoriaMetrics team and discover new ways to level up your observability game. #TechConference #AnomalyDetection

Giuseppe Maxia ( @datacharmer ) created a tool that has helped people build reproducible database environments for years. At ProxySQL, we're continuing that work: maintaining the existing workflows, extending database support, and fixing the details that make a sandbox dependable. My latest dbdeployer post covers v2.4.2 and the progress since April, with examples you can try. If you use dbdeployer, I'd like to hear which database version and topology you rely on, and where you still hit friction. proxysql.com/blog/dbdeployer…

Need a local MariaDB replication environment to reproduce a problem? Our dbdeployer update walks through downloading MariaDB 12.3.3, unpacking it, deploying a three-node replication sandbox, and running its replication test. It also covers Galera, PostgreSQL, and adding ProxySQL to supported topologies with --with-proxysql. Use a compatible host with the database runtime dependencies installed. The article includes prerequisites and links to the detailed guides. Try the examples with dbdeployer v2.4.2: proxysql.com/blog/dbdeployer… #dbdeployer #DatabaseTesting
