Hello Folks,

I have never been consistent with blogging and most of the time
I create a blog hoping that I would  share my thoughts and plans
with everyone, but as It has to happen, I neglect it.

On this new year I made a resolution that I will work on this blog
(actually it was to create one) and maintain it throughout. This
blog will be the reflection of my ideas, and an attempt to get a feedback on
my work in MySQL replication, together with providing tips and tricks
on using MySQL in distributed environment.

So, last July I joined MySQL replication development team, straight out of
college and it is kind of a big thing for me. In past 7 odd months I have
worked with great people and learnt a lot of things and this has finally lead
to an idea of starting this blog, and posting my thoughts in my spare time.

This blog will particularly be useful for people who work with MySQL be it
on the internals or on using MySQL in distributed systems. I guess it is
too early to tell what one can expect from this blog, but I will try to
keep this interesting and the posts... ummm informative.
