Comprehensive understanding of the characteristics and performance optimization methods of the MySQL MEMORY engine

MySQL supports transaction processing, and uses the InnoDB storage engine to ensure data consistency and integrity. 1. Transactions are a set of SQL operations, either all succeed or all fail to roll back; 2. ACID attributes include atomicity, consistency, isolation and persistence; 3. The statements that manually control transactions are STARTTRANSACTION, COMMIT and ROLLBACK; 4. The four isolation levels include read not committed, read submitted, repeatable read and serialization; 5. Use transactions correctly to avoid long-term operation, turn off automatic commits, and reasonably handle locks and exceptions. Through these mechanisms, MySQL can achieve high reliability and concurrent control.

Character set and sorting rules issues are common when cross-platform migration or multi-person development, resulting in garbled code or inconsistent query. There are three core solutions: First, check and unify the character set of database, table, and fields to utf8mb4, view through SHOWCREATEDATABASE/TABLE, and modify it with ALTER statement; second, specify the utf8mb4 character set when the client connects, and set it in connection parameters or execute SETNAMES; third, select the sorting rules reasonably, and recommend using utf8mb4_unicode_ci to ensure the accuracy of comparison and sorting, and specify or modify it through ALTER when building the library and table.

The most direct way to connect to MySQL database is to use the command line client. First enter the mysql-u username -p and enter the password correctly to enter the interactive interface; if you connect to the remote database, you need to add the -h parameter to specify the host address. Secondly, you can directly switch to a specific database or execute SQL files when logging in, such as mysql-u username-p database name or mysql-u username-p database name

The setting of character sets and collation rules in MySQL is crucial, affecting data storage, query efficiency and consistency. First, the character set determines the storable character range, such as utf8mb4 supports Chinese and emojis; the sorting rules control the character comparison method, such as utf8mb4_unicode_ci is case-sensitive, and utf8mb4_bin is binary comparison. Secondly, the character set can be set at multiple levels of server, database, table, and column. It is recommended to use utf8mb4 and utf8mb4_unicode_ci in a unified manner to avoid conflicts. Furthermore, the garbled code problem is often caused by inconsistent character sets of connections, storage or program terminals, and needs to be checked layer by layer and set uniformly. In addition, character sets should be specified when exporting and importing to prevent conversion errors

To design a reliable MySQL backup solution, 1. First, clarify RTO and RPO indicators, and determine the backup frequency and method based on the acceptable downtime and data loss range of the business; 2. Adopt a hybrid backup strategy, combining logical backup (such as mysqldump), physical backup (such as PerconaXtraBackup) and binary log (binlog), to achieve rapid recovery and minimum data loss; 3. Test the recovery process regularly to ensure the effectiveness of the backup and be familiar with the recovery operations; 4. Pay attention to storage security, including off-site storage, encryption protection, version retention policy and backup task monitoring.

CTEs are a feature introduced by MySQL8.0 to improve the readability and maintenance of complex queries. 1. CTE is a temporary result set, which is only valid in the current query, has a clear structure, and supports duplicate references; 2. Compared with subqueries, CTE is more readable, reusable and supports recursion; 3. Recursive CTE can process hierarchical data, such as organizational structure, which needs to include initial query and recursion parts; 4. Use suggestions include avoiding abuse, naming specifications, paying attention to performance and debugging methods.

MySQL query performance optimization needs to start from the core points, including rational use of indexes, optimization of SQL statements, table structure design and partitioning strategies, and utilization of cache and monitoring tools. 1. Use indexes reasonably: Create indexes on commonly used query fields, avoid full table scanning, pay attention to the combined index order, do not add indexes in low selective fields, and avoid redundant indexes. 2. Optimize SQL queries: Avoid SELECT*, do not use functions in WHERE, reduce subquery nesting, and optimize paging query methods. 3. Table structure design and partitioning: select paradigm or anti-paradigm according to read and write scenarios, select appropriate field types, clean data regularly, and consider horizontal tables to divide tables or partition by time. 4. Utilize cache and monitoring: Use Redis cache to reduce database pressure and enable slow query
