Chuck checked in. He has been sick but showed a bunch of us some of his progress on the new main adilas.biz website. He is making progress and we got a fun sneak peek and review. Looking good.

Wayne joined the meeting and we talked quite a bit about database stuff. We talked about moving all new tables into the InnoDB database engine (for MySQL databases). We are currently using the MyISAM database engine for most of our tables. Wayne and John are on a project to consolidate some of the bigger tables to help with that transition. We went over database transactions and allowing for roll-back if needed. We also looked at database updates, monitoring, and seeing database loads per server and number of queries per second. It is amazing to see what really goes on when our clients are rocking and rolling (normal day-to-day activity).

We talked about transitioning all of the system-wide permission checks into the newer session based permission stuff. We spend a lot of time checking different permissions. We may end up doing a small project to get some of those calls all cleaned up. We can do it, it is just a big project covering multiple (thousands) pages.

Wayne and I were also talking about performance tuning, query analytics, impact reports, and other tweaks that could be made. We also got into some deployment options, git deploy tools, and coordinating transactions and tasks between Wayne and John. Good progress!
