MySQL Stored Procedure Programming covers a lot of ground. The book starts with a thorough introduction to stored procedures programming and functions, covering the fundamentals of data types, operators, and using SQL in stored procedures. You'll learn how to build and maintain stored programs — covering transactions, stored functions, and triggers — and how to call and use MySQL-based stored procedures in a variety of languages, including PHP, Perl, Python, .NET, and Java. This book, destined to be the bible of stored procedure development, is a resource that no real MySQL programmer can afford to do without.

The implementation of stored procedures in MySQL 5.0 a huge milestone - one that is expected to lead to widespread enterprise adoption of the already extremely popular MySQL database. If you are serious about building the web-based database applications of the future, you need to get up to speed quickly on how stored procedures work — and how to build them the right way. This book, destined to be the bible of stored procedure development, is a resource that no real MySQL programmer can afford to do without.

Dimensional applications are best and most easily built using a dimensional language. These dimensional applications are typified by the related notions of OLAPand dimensional data warehouses and marts. MDX (for MultiDimensional eXpressions) is the most widely accepted software language used for these applications. The book you read here, MDX Solutions, is the second edition of a guide to learning and using MDX. Since the first edition of MDX Solutions, the number of analytical applications that use MDX has grown very large, and several more servers and many third-party and homegrown client tools now allow you to use MDX to express the logic you use to calculate and to retrieve your information.

As a language, MDX is rather different in style and feel from SQL, and quite different from other programming languages like C++, C#, Lisp, Fortran, and so on. You can think of the formula language of a spreadsheet like Excel as another programming language, and while it is different than Excel, characterizing MDX as a sort of Excel-like SQL or a SQL-like Excel seems more apt than any other analogy. (If you’re familiar with other OLAP query or calculation languages, it has more in common with them, but many readers will not be.)
