Simply MySQL Partition on One Column (groupID)
Posted by: Andrew Barlow

I have a large-ish table (over 10 million rows) - we'll call this table "rowData". I have the following columns; "rowId", "groupId" and "textString". The ID's are both ints and "textString" is a simple varchar. I only have a maximum of 50 groupId's at a time which are stored in another table (possibly not of interest), but the groupID's are NOT sequential (rowId is AUTO_INCREMENT and the PRIMARY KEY).

What I would like to do, is to partition my table on these groupID's. I know what the list of groupIDs are (IE. 2342, 5251, 1591, 5915 etc etc). How would I go about doing this (sample code anyone?) and would I have to add a new partition to my "rowData" table every time I add a new "groupId" to my group table (not discussed in detail here)?

Running version 5.5.23

Thanks!
