MySQL Database Optimization

Same goal as MySQL performance optimization, different entry point: you have a specific database or set of queries that need tuning, and you want the index/schema/query fixes applied to your system.

I review your MySQL configuration, indexes and queries, and optimize them for your actual data volume and workload.

Problems

What I Can Help With

Optimize MySQL queries, indexes and schema for your workload.

Symptoms

Process

How It Works

You share slow-log/EXPLAIN output and schema, or grant read-only access. I identify the worst queries and apply or recommend the right indexes and schema changes. Typically a few hours to a day.

Analysis and optimization. Implementation of recommended changes is quoted separately where needed.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Online schema changes — any downtime?

For large InnoDB tables I use pt-online-schema-change or native online DDL so writes keep flowing. I'll confirm the approach before doing anything.
