The First ever Sphinx Users Conference is announced to take place in Moscow, Russia on October 24th,
which is the Sunday before Highload.ru conference, so if you’re attending that you may just drop by to this event too.
this is going to be free technically focused event, close in spirit to Percona Performance Conference, we organized back in 2009

I’m going to be giving a talk on this conference focused on using Sphinx Together and instead of MySQL. There are going to be number of talks which describe Sphinx deployment alongside with MySQL so
this conference should be interested to a lot of MySQL users.

This is going to be predominately Russian speaking event. Sphinx Founder – Andrew Aksyonoff speaks Russian and so do I. At the same time we expect some talks from English speakers as well.
Call for papers is still open and if you have something to say about Sphinx we welcome you to submit the talk !

While the majority of Percona gang travelled to California for the MySQL event of the year, I headed in the opposite direction to Moscow for RIT++ 2010 conference where I presented a talk on Sphinx. You can get the PDF file here – Improving MySQL-based applications performance with Sphinx.

I have been invited to talk at Open Source Data Center Conference in Nürnberg, Germany in June this year, so I hope I can meet some of you there.

Sphinx 0.9.9 is finally released to General Availability. The previous version 0.9.9-rc2 was released back in April so there was quite a gap. This release fixes about 40 bugs which are mostly rare or insignificant. Fixing bugs in 0.9.9 was smaller portion of work done in Sphinx during last half a year – 0.9.9-rc2 was quite scale and in fact a lot of users were using 0.9.9-x branch instead of old 0.9.8 branch in production. Most of work was done on new features in 0.9.10 as well as live updates.
