FREE Online Training Class on MySQL Backups for Database Administrators

On January the 13th at 8:00 pm Eastern time I will be holding a free online training session on what I consider to be the single most important topic for any database administrator - backups/restorations. While many other topics might be  more sexy, nothing else matters if a database gets dropped for some reason or the server has a hardware failure. Never happened to you before? Well, stick around long enough as a database administrator and it will! And when stuff hits the fan you better be able to pull a good backup out and restore it in a timely manner. The class will run for approximately 2.5 - 3.0 hours and will cover a variety of methods used for backups and restores and the preparations needed for developing and executing a backup/restoration policy.

This will be hands-on training . . . not just a running through a slide deck. I learn by doing something and not just seeing  it so I structure my training around this methodology. While training like this takes more time in both preparation and execution it is well worth it in terms of retention of material.

There are a very limited number of seats available so I need you let me know you are going to attend. Please RSVP to bmurphy AT paragon-cs.com with the subject "Backup Training Online Class".

thanks,
