Kontrollbase CLI gives you advanced MySQL tuning in one powerful script

12 January 2010 | announcement | Tags: , , ,

Good news for everyone that has wanted the performance tuning abilities of Kontrollbase – the opensource enterprise monitor for MySQL – but didn’t want to install a centralized monitoring application for their MySQL database servers. Now the same performance tuning reports are available in a single script that can be run from the command line with results available in HTML, TXT, and XML formats. Download it now to get the best automated tuning analysis for your MySQL servers without any installation necessary. Soon I’ll be adding the analytics report from the webapp in addition to the current performance tuning report, so stay tuned for that in the next version, and remember to support opensource! How it’s different than the regular Kontrollbase application:

  • runs as a single script on any Linux or Unix server
  • does not require a webserver
  • does not require any schema importing or local MySQL database (unless you’re reporting on the local server)
  • utilizes a singe SQLite schema file to operate and report on data.

How it’s the same as the regular Kontrollbase application:

  • has the same perl module requirements
  • generates the same performance tuning reports
  • combines the reporter, stats gather, and client code into one modified process

    It is more than shady to require someone to sign up for your service and then forward us to code.google.com. Part of me wants to spend the time to inform them.

    If you read the original news posting entitled “Registration required to download” (http://kontrollsoft.com/archives/534) it specifically mentions “If you strongly disagree with not registering you can download the apps at google code as per usual, that way we’re not too confining.” – also Kontrollbase comes up on a Google search with the code.google.com page without too much effort – in fact it’s the 3rd link on the results. Also the application is 100% free, does not require email registration, and again is 100% free – so there’s really no way to sign up for the service. Email registration has shown to be more effective for people to report bugs via the Forum – as they already have a login to the site from their original registration. However, it is by no means a marketing method as I don’t share emails with anyone or any company, and in addition the users are not emailed anything after signing up. So, once again you do not have to register to download and that has been posted on the site in previous news entries.
