Stokes: MySQL 8.0 Indexes, Histograms, and Other Ways to Speed Up
Your Queries</strong>
<p><strong>Description</strong>:<br>
Improving the performance of database queries is often seen as a
Harry Potter-ish dark art. In reality it is simple engineering and
revolves around providing the query optimizer the best information
about your data! And how do you do that? Well, you can start with
properly planned indexes and histograms. We will also venture into
some other areas that will help you speed up your queries.</p>
<p><strong>About Dave</strong>:<br>
Dave Stokes is a MySQL Community Manager for Oracle and the author
of 'MySQL & JSON - A Practical Programming Guide'.<br>

<p><strong>der.hans: My Presentation Creation Stack with AsciiDoc</strong></p>
<p><strong>Description</strong>:<br>
Creating information rich presentations in AsciiDoc is easy.<br>
AsciiDoc was created as a markup for making DocBook books.<br>
Since it is plain text, AsciiDoc lends itself to writing, editing
and using revision control.<br>
<br>
The presentation introduces AsciiDoc and covers both advantages
and disadvantages of using it for presentations.<br>
I will also cover some of the presentation tools I've used
previously.<br>
Then I'll illuminate why I now prefer AsciiDoc and some
suggestions when using it for presentations.</p>
