• Stop Worrying and Start Monitoring with Nagios (Andrew Libby)
• DRBD, Network Raid, High Availability and General Awesomeness (Brian Gorka)
• MySQL Performance Tuning for non-DBAs (Tom Clark)
• Wonderful Desktop Tricks, and Aesthetics (Seth Jerome)
• Jump Start Django: The Web Framework for Perfectionists with Deadlines (Rob Yates)
• Watching and Manipulating Your Network Traffic (Josiah Ritchie)

And then of course I gave my own talk on Maatkit (slides). I didn’t follow the slides. I took a quick poll of who was interested in learning about making an open-source project that can support a full-time employee, and nobody was, so I skipped that and talked about what the tools can do.

In meta-news, it seemed that a lot of people already knew about Maatkit, and Percona’s name and open-source software (high-performance versions of the MySQL database server, XtraDB storage engine) seemed pretty well known too. Someone asked if Percona can support a MySQL Cluster project that has stalled with another vendor, and I was happy to say we can. Several people complimented Percona’s training, which is really a compliment to Morgan Tocker.

I’ll be attending and presenting at the 2009 Central Pennsylvania Open-Source Conference. My session is on Maatkit. I see Tom Clark has a session on MySQL performance! I hope to see you there — I’ve really become a fan of these regional conferences.

By the way, I’ve also created a speaker badge by adapting a wallpaper someone else made — you can find it on the sidebar of my blog if you’re also a speaker.
