裝了 MySQL 之後不知道怎麼開始?它能做什麼、該不該用

MySQL (32-bit) 軟體圖示 MySQL (32-bit) 5.6.23 (32-bit) 資料更新 2015-02-03 閱讀約 6 分鐘

你剛把 MySQL 裝好,打開黑色的命令提示字元視窗,輸入指令後卻不確定下一步要做什麼。或者你正在架一個網站、寫一支小程式,需要一個地方存放資料,聽別人說「用 MySQL 就好」,但你真的打開它之後,才發現跟想像中完全不一樣——沒有漂亮的視窗介面,只有一行一行的文字指令,你甚至不知道該從哪個指令開始。

一般人遇到這種狀況,直覺是去裝一個圖形介面工具,或是上網找教學影片。但問題往往不是「不會操作」,而是「不確定 MySQL 到底能幫你做到什麼程度」。它不像一般應用程式打開就能用,它是一套資料庫伺服器,需要你先理解「資料庫」的概念,才知道怎麼讓它為你工作。這類工具的核心切入點,是讓你把資料有結構地存起來、隨時查得回來,而不是像 Excel 那樣手動管理。

01MySQL 到底是做什麼用的?

它是一套關聯式資料庫管理系統,用來存放、管理、查詢資料。你可以把它想成一個「有結構的倉庫」——先把資料依照表格、欄位、關聯的方式規劃好,之後用 SQL 指令把資料寫進去或讀出來。網站會員資料、訂單紀錄、文章內容,這類需要頻繁讀寫的資料,都適合交給它處理。

02這套軟體一定要用指令操作嗎?

它本身主要透過命令提示字元操作,沒有內建圖形介面。但官方文件提到,可以搭配 phpMyAdmin、MySQL Workbench、Navicat 這些第三方工具,用滑鼠點一點就能建立表格、執行查詢、看效能狀態。如果你不習慣打指令,裝一個圖形工具會比較好上手。

03我原本用別的資料庫,可以把資料搬過來嗎?

官方說明指出,它提供工具和公用程式,可以從 Oracle、SQL Server、PostgreSQL 這些其他資料庫系統遷移過來。不過實際遷移的過程會牽涉到資料型別轉換、編碼設定等細節,建議先找官方文件確認支援的版本和步驟,再動手轉移。

04它支援寫入複雜的邏輯嗎?例如自動計算或觸發事件?

支援。官方文件明確列出它支援預存程序、觸發器和函數,意思是你可以把一段常用的 SQL 邏輯存起來重複呼叫,也可以在特定事件發生時自動執行某段程式。這對需要自動化處理資料的應用程式來說,是很常用的功能。

05資料放進去之後,要怎麼防止別人亂看?

它提供使用者認證、存取控制和加密機制。你可以建立不同的使用者帳號,分別設定他們能看哪些資料庫、能執行哪些操作,也可以啟用加密來保護傳輸中的資料。不過這些都需要你自己去設定,預設狀態下並不會自動幫你做好完整的權限控管。

06我完全沒寫過程式,適合用這套軟體嗎?

官方文件提到,要有效使用 MySQL,需要具備 SQL 語言的基本概念。如果你完全沒有接觸過資料庫,直接從指令開始會比較吃力。建議先學一點 SQL 語法,或從圖形介面工具開始操作,理解「表格、欄位、查詢」這些基本概念之後,再回來用指令會順很多。

07我只是做一個簡單的小專案,用這套會不會太重?

官方說明指出,它適合從小型應用到大規模企業系統。但如果你只是要存少量資料、不想管伺服器設定,官方文件也提到 SQLite 這類「免伺服器」的資料庫,特色是簡單、可攜、零設定。如果你的專案不需要多人同時連線、不需要複雜查詢,SQLite 可能更省事。

08這套軟體是免費的嗎?有沒有什麼限制?

它分為 Community Edition(免費、開放原始碼)和 Enterprise Edition(付費訂閱)。免費版功能已經很完整,但官方文件提到,進階功能像是即時分析、企業級技術支援,只有在付費的 Enterprise Edition 才有。如果你需要的是基本儲存和查詢,免費版通常夠用。

09我習慣用圖形介面,這套軟體有中文介面嗎?

它的介面語言是英文,而且主要操作介面是命令列。官方文件提到的第三方工具,像是 phpMyAdmin、MySQL Workbench,是否有中文介面需要另外確認。如果你很依賴中文介面,可能要考慮其他有提供在地化語言的資料庫工具,或先試用看看英文介面能不能接受。

10這套軟體在 Windows 上跑得順嗎?

官方說明指出,它支援 Windows、macOS 和 Linux,安裝過程通常是執行安裝程式、按幾個下一步。但官方文件也提醒,系統需求會依作業系統和版本而異,需要足夠的磁碟空間、記憶體和處理器效能。如果你的電腦規格比較舊,建議先確認官方列出的需求再安裝。

11我聽說 MySQL 很容易被駭,是真的嗎?

官方文件強調它提供多種驗證機制和加密選項來保護資料,但安全性很大程度取決於你怎麼設定。預設安裝完成後,如果你沒有修改預設帳號密碼、沒有設定防火牆規則,確實會有風險。建議安裝後第一件事就是設定強密碼、建立專用帳號,並關閉不需要的網路連線。

12這套軟體和 SQL Server Express 比起來,哪個比較適合我?

兩者都是免費的資料庫,但取向不同。SQL Server Express 是微軟的產品,和 Windows 環境、微軟開發工具整合較好;MySQL 則強調跨平台、支援多種程式語言。官方文件也提到,SQL Server 是 MySQL 的替代方案之一。如果你主要用微軟生態系,SQL Server Express 可能比較順;如果你需要跨平台或搭配開源技術,MySQL 會是常見選擇。

這一版改了什麼

What's new in this version:

Security Notes:
- The linked OpenSSL library for the MySQL Commercial Server has been updated from version 1.0.1j to version 1.0.1k.
- This change does not affect the Oracle-produced MySQL Community build of MySQL Server, which uses the yaSSL library instead. (Bug #20375530) Functionality Added or Changed:
- Support for the SSL 2.0 and SSL 3.0 protocols has been disabled because they provide weak encryption. Support was added for the TLS 1.1 and TLS 1.2 protocols. (Bug #19820550)
- References: See also Bug #19921150
- yaSSL was upgraded to version 2.3.7. (Bug #19695101, Bug #20201864)
- The valid date range of the SSL certificates in mysql-test/std_data has been extended to the year 2029. (Bug #18366947) Bugs Fixed:
- InnoDB: A tablespace export operation set the purge state to PURGE_STATE_STOP but the purge thread did not check the purge state until the current purge operation was completed. In the case of a large history list, the tablespace export operation was delayed, waiting for the current purge operation to finish. The purge state is now checked with every purge batch. (Bug #20266847, Bug #75298)
- InnoDB: An ALTER TABLE ... ADD INDEX operation raised an assertion due to assertion code that did not allow an online index status of ONLINE_INDEX_ABORTED_DROPPED. The assertion code has been relaxed. (Bug #20198726)
- InnoDB: An error occurred when the push_warning_printf function was invoked during server recovery. This function was previously used to print a warning message to the client. Also, current_thd was NULL when the server was restarted. (Bug #20144839)
- InnoDB: An ALTER TABLE operation that changed the name of a foreign key column resulted in a failure when reloading the foreign key constraint. The previous column name remained in the data dictionary cache instead of being evicted. (Bug #20031243)
- InnoDB: Error messages regarding a size limitation on BLOB or TEXT data inserted in a single transaction have been revised. (Bug #19975322)
- InnoDB: DML operations on a table with full-text search indexes raised an invalid assertion. (Bug #19905246)
- References: This bug is a regression of Bug #19314480.
- InnoDB: A multiple-table delete operation caused the server to halt. (Bug #19815702)
- InnoDB: A FLUSH TABLES operation raised an assertion. (Bug #19803418)
- InnoDB: With change buffering enabled, a buffered sequence of operations that should not have been buffered resulted in an Unable to purge a record error. (Bug #19528825, Bug #73767)
- InnoDB: On non-Windows platforms, os-file_pread and os_file_pwrite functions return -1 when an error occurs. This value was printed in an error message as the number of bytes read or written. Instead of printing the -1 value in the error message, a separate error message indicating a system call failure is now printed. Thanks to David Bennett for the patch. (Bug #19315210, Bug #73365)
- InnoDB: A slow shutdown (innodb_fast_shutdown=0) after crash recovery raised an assertion. Slow shutdown did not wait for background rollback operations to finish before proceeding. (Bug #16862810)
- InnoDB: The integer column value was handled incorrectly for the memcached incr and decr commands. (Bug #69415, Bug #20083106, Bug #74874, Bug #20044123)
- Partitioning: A failed ALTER TABLE ... TRUNCATE PARTITION statement or a failed TRUNCATE TABLE statement against a partitioned table sometimes left inconsistent metadata in the table cache; subsequent SQL statements reusing this metadata failed, and could in some cases also lead to a failure of the server. (Bug #74292, Bug #19786861)
- Replication: If a client thread on a slave executed FLUSH TABLES WITH READ LOCK while the master executed a DML, executing SHOW SLAVE STATUS in the same client became blocked, causing a deadlock. The fix ensures that the read lock is only held during the period that the relay log is being updated and the deadlock is avoided. (Bug #19843808)
- Replication: When an XA transaction was active, executing an internal rollback, for example using the BINLOG statement, resulted in an assertion. The fix ensures that a rollback happens only for a slave when a transaction spans multiple binary log files. Rollback does not happen now if the Format_description comes from the BINLOG statement being executed in the MySQL client. (Bug #74597, Bug #19928622)
- Replication: In normal usage, it is not possible for a slave to have more GTIDs than the master. But in certain situations, such as after a hardware failure or incorrectly cleared gtid_purged, the master's binary log could be truncated. This fix ensures that in such a situation, the master now detects that the slave has transactions with GTIDs which are not on the master. An error is now generated on the slave and the I/O thread is stopped with an error. The master's dump thread is also stopped. This prevents data inconsistencies during replication. (Bug #72635, Bug #18789758)
- Replication: When using SHOW SLAVE STATUS to monitor replication performance, Seconds_Behind_Master sometimes displayed unexpected lag behind the master. This was caused by Previous_gtids_log_events being written to the slave's relay log with a timestamp behind the master, and then being used to calculate the Seconds_Behind_Master. This fix ensures that events generated on the slave that are added to the relay log and are not used when calculating Seconds_Behind_Master. (Bug #72376, Bug #18622657)
- On Ubuntu 14.10, MySQL install operations could fail to reload AppArmor. (Bug #20092641)
- EXPLAIN within an XA transaction could raise an assertion. (Bug #19941492)
- Binary log files created by streaming the binary log from a remote server with mysqlbinlog were given an access mode more permissive than the original files. (Bug #19649868)
- If the audit_log plugin encountered a disk-full error, the server would exit.
- Now, if the file system to which the audit log is being written fills up, a “disk full” error is written to the error log. Audit logging continues until the audit log buffer is full. If free disk space has not been made available by the time the buffer fills, client sessions will hang, and stopping the server at the time of client sessions hanging will result in audit log corruption. To avoid this if client sessions are hung, ensure that free space is available on the audit logging file system before stopping the server. (Bug #19411485)
- For failure to create a temporary table due to being out of file descriptors, the server exited rather than returning an error. (Bug #18948649)
- For some queries that contained a derived table (subquery in the FROM clause), delay of materialization resulted in a suboptimal execution plan due to a less accurate row-count estimate. (Bug #18607971)
- For UPDATE and DELETE statements, the server could exit after attempting to access an uninitialized data structure. (Bug #18036143)
- Starting the server with start service or mysqld_safe could result in failure to use the correct plugin directory. (Bug #17619241)
- FLUSH TABLES on a FEDERATED table failed if the table had been idle longer than the wait_timeout time plus the TCP keepalive time. (Bug #17599258)
- Selecting all columns from INFORMATION_SCHEMA.TABLES did not reopen tables if they were in the table cache, but selecting a subset of those columns under the same conditions did reopen tables. (Bug #16869534)
- If my_write() encountered a disk-full condition, it could return an incorrect error value. (Bug #16078792, Bug #19984788)
- InnoDB boolean full-text searches incorrectly handled + combined with parentheses; for example, +word1 +(>word2
