虽然最新的MySQL安装文件都带有MySQL Workbench，可以方便建模并生成，不过口碑最佳的数据库建模工具还是当属Sybase的PowerDesign，可以让我们方便地一次建模，四海成库。
下面写一下如何从PowerDesign中导出数据库至MySQL（首先说明我用的是PowerDesigner 15以及MySQL5.5.22）：
1、Database -> Configure Connections…
在弹出的中切换到Connection Profiles栏目；点击Add Data Source（Ctrl+N）图标，弹出Connection Profile Definition对话框，在其中填写相关内容，其中关键几项示例：
Connection type：JDBC
DBMS type：MySQL
User name、Pass为MySQL数据库账号密码
JDBC driver class：com.mysql.jdbc.Driver
JDBC connection URL：jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/database（此处注意database必须是MySQL中已建立的数据库名）
JDBC driver jar files：mysql-connector-java-3.1.x-bin.jar（此处注意，如果使用PowerDesign自带的这个版本jar文件，在后来的connect测试连接中会报Non SQL Error:Could not load clas com.mysql.jdbc.Driver的错误，在将jar文件换做较高版本之后，比如我使用了mysql-connector-java- 5.1.7-bin.jar，则连接测试成功）。
2、Database -> Connect…
在弹出的对话框中，各项选择之前所配置的内容，Data source:Connection profile:XXX.dcp，Login之后Connect，便成功连接了。
3、Change current DBMS…
这步一定要，选择DBMS为MySQL5.0或者与你数据库相匹配的DBMS，确定。
4、Generate Database…
如果要导出到MySQL数据库中，就差这一小步了。Generation type选项中，Script generation只单纯生成型关联的sql文件，如果要同时直接导出到数据库，点选Direct generation，并选择之前建立的XXX.dcp，基本上到这里就可以点击确定了，如果要自定义输出某些库表，则在相应标签栏中指定，最后控制台输出一连串的指令之后还会弹出一个Execute SQL Query对话框，点击run一会儿之后数据库就华丽地出现在MySQL数据库中了！

MySQL BLOB: how to optimize BLOBs requestsMay 13, 2025 am 12:03 AMOptimizing MySQLBLOB requests can be done through the following strategies: 1. Reduce the frequency of BLOB query, use independent requests or delay loading; 2. Select the appropriate BLOB type (such as TINYBLOB); 3. Separate the BLOB data into separate tables; 4. Compress the BLOB data at the application layer; 5. Index the BLOB metadata. These methods can effectively improve performance by combining monitoring, caching and data sharding in actual applications.
Adding Users to MySQL: The Complete TutorialMay 12, 2025 am 12:14 AMMastering the method of adding MySQL users is crucial for database administrators and developers because it ensures the security and access control of the database. 1) Create a new user using the CREATEUSER command, 2) Assign permissions through the GRANT command, 3) Use FLUSHPRIVILEGES to ensure permissions take effect, 4) Regularly audit and clean user accounts to maintain performance and security.

MySQL: String Data Types and Indexing: Best PracticesMay 12, 2025 am 12:11 AMBest practices for handling string data types and indexes in MySQL include: 1) Selecting the appropriate string type, such as CHAR for fixed length, VARCHAR for variable length, and TEXT for large text; 2) Be cautious in indexing, avoid over-indexing, and create indexes for common queries; 3) Use prefix indexes and full-text indexes to optimize long string searches; 4) Regularly monitor and optimize indexes to keep indexes small and efficient. Through these methods, we can balance read and write performance and improve database efficiency.

mPDF
mPDF is a PHP library that can generate PDF files from UTF-8 encoded HTML. The original author, Ian Back, wrote mPDF to output PDF files "on the fly" from his website and handle different languages. It is slower than original scripts like HTML2FPDF and produces larger files when using Unicode fonts, but supports CSS styles etc. and has a lot of enhancements. Supports almost all languages, including RTL (Arabic and Hebrew) and CJK (Chinese, Japanese and Korean). Supports nested block-level elements (such as P, DIV),
