About Me

Yuan Yao

I have been a database specialist for more than 30 years and have spent most of my career as a database consultant, helping clients overcome complex database challenges, particularly performance-related issues.

I am the author of two books on database performance:

  • Oracle Database Performance Tuning with AWR, ASH & ADDM: Real-World Diagnostics and Troubleshooting (Apress, ISBN-13: 9798868832635)
  • MySQL 8.0 Operations and Optimization (Tsinghua University Press, ISBN: 9787302602682).

I have been recognized by Oracle as an Oracle ACE Pro. (ace.oracle.com)

In recognition of my cloud expertise, Huawei named me a Huawei Cloud Most Valuable Professional (MVP), despite my never having been a Huawei employee.

I hold more than 27 Oracle certifications, including Oracle Certified Master (OCM) certifications for Oracle Database 10g through 19c. I also hold two computer-related patents and have received two ministerial-level awards.
