The Technical Blueprint behind MySQL and Data Warehousing

The technical attributes of MySQL’s data warehousing strategy include four things. First, a commitment to

an open source methodology that helps maximize innovation. Second, a solid RDBMS feature set that

lends itself to data warehousing. Third, a unique architecture that underpins the MySQL database server

and allows it to support each major data warehousing use case through one common interface layer. And

fourth, a strategy for scaling data warehouses is supplied that eliminates the mixed workload challenge

identified by Gartner.
