Charles Bell
Dr. Charles Bell is a senior software engineer at Oracle. He is currently the lead developer
for backup and a member of the MySQL Backup and Replication team. He lives
in a small town in rural Virginia with his loving wife. He received his Doctor of Philosophy
in Engineering from Virginia Commonwealth University in 2005. His research
interests include database systems, versioning systems, semantic web, and agile software
development.
Mats Kindahl
Dr. Mats Kindahl is a senior software developer working on the MySQL server. He is
the main architect and implementor of MySQL’s row-based replication and is responsible
for strategic development of replication, reengineering, and the plug-in architecture.
Before starting at MySQL, he did research in formal methods, program analysis,
and distributed systems, the area where he earned his doctoral degree in computer
science. He has also spent many years developing C/C++ compilers and knows more
programming languages than he has fingers.
Lars Thalmann
Dr. Lars Thalmann is the development manager for MySQL replication and backup.
He is responsible for the strategy and development of these features and leads the corresponding
engineering teams. Thalmann has worked with MySQL development since
2001, when he was a software developer working on MySQL Cluster. More recently,
he has driven the creation and development of the MySQL Enterprise Backup feature,
has guided the evolution of MySQL replication since 2004, and has been a key player
in the development of MySQL Cluster replication. Thalmann holds a doctorate in
Computer Science from Uppsala University, Sweden.
The animal on the cover of MySQL High Availability is an American robin (Turdus
migratorius). Instantly recognizable by its distinctive appearance—dark head, reddishorange
breast, and brown back—this member of the thrush family is among the most
common American birds. (Though it shares its name with the European robin, which
also has a reddish breast, the two species are not closely related.)
The American robin inhabits a range of six million square miles in North America and
is resident year-round through much of the United States. Commonly considered a
harbinger of spring, robins are early to sing in the morning and among the last birds
singing at night. Their diets consist of invertebrates (often earthworms) and fruit and
berries. Robins favor open ground and short grass, so they are frequent backyard visitors,
and they are often found in parks, in gardens, and on lawns.
