+*MySQL 8 Query Performance Tuning: A Systematic Method for Improving Execution Speeds* walks through a repeatable process for query tuning: monitoring execution times, identifying which queries are worth optimizing, analyzing their current execution plans, and improving them — using both the traditional `EXPLAIN` command and MySQL 8's `EXPLAIN ANALYZE`.
+
+The author, Jesper Wisborg Krogh, has worked with MySQL since 2006 as an SQL developer, DBA, and member of the Oracle MySQL Support team, with a particular focus on performance tuning and the Performance and sys schemas. Published by Apress in 2020.

+description: "A triggerless online schema migration tool for MySQL, built by GitHub, that produces a lightweight replication-based workload instead of relying on triggers."

+
+gh-ost runs schema migrations by tailing the binary log rather than installing triggers on the table being altered, so the extra load it places on the primary stays light and decoupled from the table's existing write traffic. Migrations can be tested in dry-run mode, throttled or paused mid-flight, and controlled interactively over a Unix socket or plain text file — without ever touching the table's structure until the final atomic cutover.
+
+It was built and open-sourced by GitHub, is released under the MIT license, and is used in production to run large-scale schema changes with minimal impact on live traffic.

+Percona Toolkit bundles the command-line tools Percona's own support engineers use day to day — online schema changes (`pt-online-schema-change`), replica/table consistency checks (`pt-table-checksum`, `pt-table-sync`), and query analysis (`pt-query-digest`) among them — into a single collection so teams don't have to write and maintain the equivalent scripts themselves.
+
+It's released under the GPL-2.0 license and actively maintained by Percona alongside their MySQL and Percona Server tooling.
