OurSQL Episode 4: Cluster From Down Under

This week’s podcast is an interview with MySQL’s Stewart Smith, software engineer for MySQL Cluster. Straight from the warm southern hemisphere, Stewart talks about Cluster. Because we gabbed on and on for 19 minutes, we’ve stripped the format down a bit, having the feature as pretty much the only segment.
