About the Authors
Sergei Golubchik started modifying MySQL source code in 1998, and has
continued as a MySQL AB employee since 2000. Working professionally with MySQL
sources, he has had the opportunity to get to know and extend almost every part
of the server code—from the SQL core to the utility functions. He was one of the
primary architects of the Plugin API. After working for ten years in the ever-growing
MySQL AB, and later in Sun Microsystems as a Principal Software Developer, he
resigned to join a small startup company that works on a MariaDB—an extended
version of the MySQL server, where he continues to do what he likes most—hack on
MySQL, architecting, and developing MySQL/MariaDB Plugin API, making it even
more powerful, safe, and easy to use.
He works and lives in Germany, near Cologne, with his lovely wife and two kids.
Andrew Hutchings is currently one of the top MySQL Support Engineers
working at Oracle. He came from failing Computer Science at A-Level (British
exams for 17-18 year olds) to working on, pretty much, every ield of computing.
His irst development job was as an 8-bit assembly irmware developer for an
environment monitoring company. He then went on to become a senior PHP and C/
C++ developer as well as a DBA and system administrator for a large UK magazine
chain. From there he was snapped up by Sun Microsystems as a MySQL Support
Engineer specializing in MySQL Cluster and C/C++ APIs, much of this work
involving deep analysis of the MySQL source code. Sun has since been bought by
Oracle and Andrew is continuing his role there and was a tutorial speaker at the
2010 O’Reilly MySQL Conference & Expo. In his spare time Andrew is an active
community developer of MySQL, MySQL Cluster, Drizzle, and MySQL Data
Dumper (mydumper for short) as well as other small, related projects.
I’d like to thank my wife, Natalie, and my children, Tomos and
Oliver, for putting up with me while I was writing this book. I also
wish to thank my colleagues, ex-colleagues, and others in the MySQL
community (you know who you are) for their help and support in
getting started with writing a book. And, of course, my co-author
Sergei, without whom this whole book would not have been possible.
