    Stage 2: Searching for Opportunities
    The Releem platform uses AI to continuously search for opportunities to enhance MySQL performance. On the Free plan, Releem tunes only 10 MySQL variables, while the Premium plan offers tuning of more variables.

    Stage 3: Expert System Evaluation
    If Releem's AI identifies a viable hypothesis for performance improvement, the platform's expert system will assess whether it can be safely applied to your server. This step ensures that any proposed changes do not adversely affect the stability or security of your MySQL instance.

    Stage 4: Preparing New Configuration
    Once the expert system has verified the safety of a proposed change, Releem will prepare a new configuration and display it to the user. At this stage, you will see the number of unapplied recommendations in the Recommended Configuration block.

    Stage 5: Applying Recommended Configuration
    When the recommended configuration is ready, you should apply it to your server. You can do this manually or automatically using the Releem Agent, depending on your server type and installation method. After applying the configuration, it may take up to 12 hours for Releem to detect the changes and update the unapplied recommendations count.

    By following these stages, the Releem tuning process ensures that your MySQL server's performance is optimized safely and effectively. Regularly reviewing and applying recommended configurations will help you maintain peak performance and meet your business requirements.

      Instructions to enable feature for Releem Agent
      1. For self-managed servers
      Automatic installation:
      Note: If your server is already installed, you can use automatic installation, as it won't add a new server if it has the same hostname.
      1. Click "Add Server" link at Releem Customer Portal
      2. Select the installation type
      3. Modify the one-step installation command and the following environment variable:
      RELEEM_QUERY_OPTIMIZATION=true
      4.Run the modified installation command on your server

      If the server is already added, you can copy the following command, change MySQL root password and run it
      RELEEM_MYSQL_ROOT_PASSWORD='password' /bin/bash -c "$(curl -L https://releem.s3.amazonaws.com/v2/install.sh)" enable_query_optimization

      Manual installation:
      If your server is already installed please do the following steps:
      1. Grant additional permissions to releem user. See section below Additional Permission Required
      2. Add query_optimization=true setting to the /opt/releem/releem.conf
      3. Restart Releem Agent using the following command: systemctl restart releem-agent
      4. Run the following command: /opt/releem/mysqlconfigurer.sh -p
      2. For AWS RDS
      1. Grant additional permissions to releem user. See section below Additional Permission Required
      2. Set the following MySQL variables in the Parameter Group to allow Releem to collect more queries for optimization:
      performance_schema = 1 performance_schema_events_statements_history_size = 500
      3. Update already installed Releem Agent
      3.1 Select CloudFormation Stack - releem-agent, click button Update
      3.2 Select “Replace existing template”
      3.3 Paste in “Amazon S3 URL” url https://releem.s3.amazonaws.com/test/releem-agent-cloudformation.yml and click “Next”
      3.4 Change option “QueryOptimization” to true and click “Next”
      3.5 Click “Next” and “Submit”
      3. For DOCKER
      1. Grant additional permissions to releem user. See section below Additional Permission Required
      2. Re-install Releem Agent with RELEEM_QUERY_OPTIMIZATION=true environment variable enabled.
      Note:
      1. Be sure that the RELEEM_HOSTNAME variable should be the same as currently added server.
      2. If you don't configure automatic applying of configuration then please add the following MySQL variables to the configuration:
      performance-schema-consumer-events-statements-history = ON performance-schema-consumer-events-statements-current = ON performance_schema_events_statements_history_size = 500
      Additional Database Permissions Required
      The SQL Query Optimization feature requires additional permissions for the Releem Agent user. These permissions will be granted during the automatic installation process. The following SQL command will be executed:
      GRANT SELECT ON *.* TO releem@'%'

      FOR AWS RDS
      With AWS RDS, performance schema consumers can’t be enabled permanently in a configuration. Create the following procedure to give the Agent the ability to enable performance_schema.events_* consumers at runtime:
      CREATE SCHEMA IF NOT EXISTS releem; DELIMITER $$ CREATE PROCEDURE releem.enable_events_statements_consumers() SQL SECURITY DEFINER BEGIN UPDATE performance_schema.setup_consumers SET enabled='YES' WHERE name LIKE 'events_statements_%'; END $$ DELIMITER ; GRANT EXECUTE ON PROCEDURE releem.enable_events_statements_consumers TO releem@'%';
      Data Collection and Analysis
      Once the SQL Query Optimization feature is enabled, Releem will automatically collect and save the EXPLAIN outputs of the top 100 queries and the top 100 slowest queries. This data helps in analyzing the execution plan of queries and optimizing them further.

      An example of the EXPLAIN output collected by Releem is provided below:
       { "query_block": { "select_id": 1, "cost_info": { "query_cost": "0.60" }, "table": { "table_name": "sale_internals_order_discount", "access_type": "ref", "possible_keys": [ "IX_SALE_ORDER_DSC_HASH" ], "key": "IX_SALE_ORDER_DSC_HASH", "used_key_parts": [ "DISCOUNT_HASH" ], "key_length": "98", "ref": [ "const" ], "rows_examined_per_scan": 1, "rows_produced_per_join": 1, "filtered": "100.00", "cost_info": { "read_cost": "0.50", "eval_cost": "0.10", "prefix_cost": "0.60", "data_read_per_join": "1K" }, "used_columns": [ "ID", "MODULE_ID", "DISCOUNT_ID", "NAME", "DISCOUNT_HASH", "CONDITIONS", "UNPACK", "ACTIONS", "APPLICATION", "USE_COUPONS", "SORT", "PRIORITY", "LAST_DISCOUNT", "ACTIONS_DESCR" ] } } }
