A year and a half ago we rebooted MySQL from being a monolithic architecture to being a micro-kernel. This talk walks through the current architecture and philosophy around those decisions. We look at what are the components that make up a database, aka engine, rewrite, parser, join optimizer, etc, and explain how they are fit together and how you can replace these pieces with your own components.
