 Okay, welcome back everyone. We're here live, day two of Percona Live. This is Silicon Angles theCUBE, our flagship program. We go out to the events, extract the signal from the noise. I'm John Furrier, the founder of Silicon Angles. I'm joined by Coase Jeff Frick with Silicon Angle Network. Jeff, day two of Percona Live. Last night we had, yesterday we had Percona Live day one, now day two. But last night we went up to San Francisco for sports, data, SV, our special presentation with the San Francisco Giants, San Jose Sharks, San Jose Earthquakes and the San Francisco 49ers, talking sports and big data and great events, and we'll talk through that a little bit today, but you can't have big data without storing it somewhere. So the MySQL world is under a lot of pressure to scale. The LAMP stack revolution is changing into the multi-stack revolution. A lot of tools out there, a lot of things with cloud. What's your take of yesterday, here at Percona and sports data, SV, and here day two? Has it all tied together? Well, I think what's great, John, about theCUBE is we go to these variety of events and we really cover the entire, not the LAMP stack, but kind of the tech athlete stack, if you will. And we spend a lot of time with practitioners and the tech athletes that are creating the technology and developing the technology. Founders of ADUP, et cetera. Now here at the open source, one of the earlier open source components with MySQL, and we'll get back into the weeds here today with some of the technology aspects. Then yesterday we were out at Sports Data SV talking really to the practitioners and not even in the tech industry per se, but with the giants, the Niners, the earthquakes, and the sharks, and thank you gentlemen for coming last night. But it was really fun to see how people are putting these technologies into play from the perspective of, we just want to deliver a better fan experience, we want to deliver more value to our clients. And again, I thought what was really provocative last night was in the giants mission statement that's on the plaque as you walk in the executive office, the first attribute of their mission statement is innovation. So I think we continue to see innovation, ways to innovate, how open sources is changing the innovation landscape. And to me, I think that's exciting. And now we get down back into the weeds and how the speeds and feeds all work. Yeah, one of the things that came out of that executive event we had last night with sports teams was fun. Was obviously, we love sports, we love to talk about the giants and the Niners. But it's really, they're like any other enterprise out there. They have business objectives. And what's surprising to me is how deep they have a development team out in each organization. So if you look at the giants, for instance, you mentioned innovation. Their IT and development focus is deep and they use data and there's a competitive advantage. And we talked yesterday about LinkedIn, Facebook, Twitter and others using, you know, web scale SQL as an initiative, as a pressure to scale up, you know, SQL, because they're using data as a competitive advantage. It's part of their core value proposition, their application. That's the same with the sports teams. And I think that's consistent with the enterprises where you're going to see more and more of the data first strategy where it's all about, okay, let's engineer around, okay, what we got and what do we have for data? And that's what the giants have done. That's what we hear with the earthquakes and certainly the Niners. I mean, they're going to be able to tell you when the bathroom lines are long or short and every instant replay five seconds to your mobile device is impressive. So what that means is that the development community is going to be under more pressure to scale out of the box. And that is take it to, as I said, with SQL has always had that glass ceiling of performance and you see Mongo and Cassandra, things like that, push the envelope. But still I think with Mongo they've had great success but they've always had that glass ceiling of scale that no one's ever talked about. I think people engineer around it and push buttons and wire things to make it work but it's truly not scalable. But they have had replication and high availability out of the box and I think my SQL needs to come to that direction. That's the buzz here. And ultimately enabling developers for DevOps, for application development so that folks like the giants, like large enterprises where it's bank, retail, oil and gas, whatever you want to call it can integrate into this multi-platform environment. So that's really what's going on here at Percona Live and there's a lot at risk. MySQL has huge popularity. Core of the developers, hundreds of thousands of people using MySQL and developing on it. So it's not like a bit player in the database business. It's really the real deal. So how this evolves is interesting and the role Oracle plays is also interesting. So Oracle's earnings are up 52 week high and we were kicking Oracle side of the street four years ago really, really hammering them about innovation. I call them the telco of the tech business really extracting rents and really kind of the bad actor. You just sit in there just monopolizing the monetization. But now we're in a build mode, build monetize, build deploy monetize seems to be the mantra. So it's good news for Oracle. And I think if they can just keep everyone kind of tightened up and not try to control it I think we're going to see some good things. Yeah and Larry Shown, he can turn that shit pretty quickly for a big organization when you've got basically one guy at the top that's making all the decisions and they make their moves and they move aggressively when they do make their moves. The other piece I think that came out last night that I think is interesting that I think a lot of people think about is this concept of the citizen developer and how much internal development is being done at all these different companies using really the component kind of assembly process. And I think Bill Schlau last night talked about one of his guys on his team that they can't develop applications fast enough for this guy. You just continue to figure out new ways to get more data, build more applications and test things. The other thing is he said, you know that really the innovation only gives you a couple of year window of sustainable advantage. There is no long-term sustainable advantage. The only way that you can do that is through innovation. The only way you can innovate is to try things. And I think that's part of the secret I think of Silicon Valley is people are not afraid to try. There's no real black mark if you fail. Just fail fast and move to the next thing. And I think that's part of what's really exciting about this time that we're in today that everyone is developing. They're building applications. The data is the asset. How fast can you collect it? How innovative can you be in ways to use it to get that short-term competitive advantage over your competition because they're going to be right there behind you. So it's good stuff. Okay, we'll be right back with our first guest here day two live coverage of theCUBE. Our flagship program got the advanced extracurricular noise. I'm John Furrier with Jeff Frick. We'll be right back.
