BLOB streaming, Raj Kissu, in the newspapers
Raj Kissu is in the papers today. He completed a Google Summer of Code 2008 project with MySQL, hacking on blob streaming for phpMyAdmin. In fact, his project was so good, he has commit access to the phpMyAdmin tree :-)
Today, The Star had an article about him (and two other students), titled For the love of code. He said:
But Raj has already heard inquiries for his project. “A company that has developed a transactional engine using MySQL server have clients who want to test BlobStreaming,” he said.
Kudos Raj. I think we’ll see more great work from Paul McCullagh and Barry Leslie, as more happens with Scalable BLOB Streaming for MySQL happens.
In fact, Barry Leslie from PrimeBase will be speaking about blob streaming in his talk titled BLOB Streaming: Efficient reliable BLOB handling for all storage engines, at the MySQL Conference & Expo 2009. What are you waiting for – register now and save! See you at CE2009!
