Introduction

Welcome to the MySQL Administrator's Bible. Like all books in the Bible series, you can expect to find both hands-on tutorials and real-world practical application information, as well as reference and background information that provide a context for what you are learning. This book is a comprehensive resource on MySQL database administration. It covers almost every conceivable topic of database administration from the very basics, including server installation and user management, to some fairly complex topics such as security and high availability. By the time you have completed the MySQL Administrator's Bible you will be well-prepared to perform as a database administrator.

This book fully covers MySQL 5.1 plus early features of the 6.0 release (as of the time of writing). All of the examples work in both MySQL 5.1 and MySQL 6.0, except where noted.
