SCaLE X 2025 – Boosting MySQL with Vector Search: Introducing the MyVector Plugin
As the demand for vector databases and Generative AI continues to rise, integrating vector storage and search capabilities into traditional databases has become increasingly important. This session introduces the *MyVector Plugin*, a project that brings native vector storage and similarity search to MySQL. Unlike PostgreSQL, which offers interfaces for adding new data types and index methods, MySQL lacks such extensibility. However, by utilizing MySQL's server component plugin and UDF, the *MyVector Plugin* successfully adds a fully functional vector search feature within the existing MySQL + InnoDB infrastructure, eliminating the need for a separate vector database. The session explains the technical aspects of integrating vector support into MySQL, the challenges posed by its architecture, and real-world use cases that showcase the advantages of combining vector search with MySQL's robust features. Attendees will leave with practical insights on how to add vector search capabilities to their MySQL systems.

FOSSASIA SUMMIT 2025 – Unified Observability: Leveraging ClickHouse as a Comprehensive Telemetry Database
As modern infrastructures become more complex, traditional monitoring tools often struggle to provide a complete understanding of system health. This presentation will explore how ClickHouse, a high-performance columnar database, enables unified observability by consolidating metrics, logs, traces, and eBPF data into a scalable platform.
Attendees will learn how fragmented telemetry systems can hinder root-cause analysis and operational efficiency and how ClickHouse overcomes these challenges by offering seamless integration with tools like OpenTelemetry, Grafana, Prometheus, and more. We will also compare observability solutions, such as Coroot, qryn, and custom stacks with Jaeger and Loki, to demonstrate how ClickHouse simplifies data management, enhances real-time analysis, and supports large-scale telemetry use cases.
This session will provide practical insights into implementing ClickHouse for observability, enabling engineers to focus on system insights while minimizing infrastructure complexity.
