It’s that time of the year again and I’m in Santa Clara, CA, for the 2008 MySQL Conference & Expo. This year, the conference includes a lot more Web 2.0 topics.

The conference starts out with a full day of tutorials. The two tutorials I signed up for are:

• All Bases Covered: A Hands-on Introduction to High-availability MySQL and DRBD
• Memcached and MySQL: Everything You Need To Know

I’ve made it a point this time to learn about things that I wouldn’t normally go to. This includes sessions about testings, benchmarking, and MySQL’s information schema.

I’ll be blogging about some of the sessions that I’ll be attending, so stay tuned!
